     1.4 +Antinat is a flexible SOCKS server and client library for writing proxy-based 
     1.5 +applications. It supports SOCKS 4, SOCKS 4a, SOCKS 5, authentication, CHAP, 
     1.6 +XML firewalling, Win32, server chaining, and UDP. It also contains very 
     1.7 +experimental IPv6 support.
     1.8 +
     1.9 +SOCKS can be used to overcome some limitations of NAT, including facilites 
    1.10 +for allowing connectbacks and server-side DNS. Antinat aims to be fully 
    1.11 +standards compliant, feature rich, and have a solid API for writing 
    1.12 +standards-compliant client applications.
    1.13 +
    1.14 +Connections are filtered by applying XML rules, which allow for very 
    1.15 +fine-grained control. You can filter out on the basis of addresses, ports, 
    1.16 +users, socks version, the operation requested, how the user was 
    1.17 +authenticated, and where user credentials came from.
    1.18 +
    1.19 +Note: Antinat is not malware! Antinat, like any SOCKS server, enables you to 
    1.20 +traverse network boundaries once you have access to a machine. Whether this 
    1.21 +is malicious or not depends on who installed and configured the software. If 
    1.22 +you're on this website looking to install and configure this software, that 
    1.23 +means it's no more malicious than you.
    1.24 +
    1.25 +Standard free software disclaimer: find a bug? Let us know. Want a feature? 
    1.26 +Let us know. Patches are preferred to feedback, feedback is preferred to 
    1.27 +nothing. We can't read your mind. We can't. Honest.
