Mac os x ipfw forward from ip:port to ip:port

Question

I want when on my local machine redirect from 192.168.64.88 port 80 to localhost port 9790. How can I do it with ipfw rule?

Poor man's solution would be to use http://localhost:9790 in the browser. I assume this is not an option for you? — nohillside, Commented Feb 4, 2013 at 12:56

I found the solution:

sudo ifconfig lo0 192.168.64.88 alias
sudo ipfw add fwd 127.0.0.1,9790 tcp from me to 192.168.64.88 dst-port 80

After a restart you have to run this commands again.

You can define a launchd entry to automatically execute these commands on a reboot.

or you could put it in your ~/.bash_profile but that would only work if you live in the terminal

Unfortunately ipfw has been deprecated. How to achieve the same using pfctl tool?
