Can you please provide a link to the requirement specification you
mention. I can't seem to find a reference to it.
(Note: I haven't closely followed this thread maybe I missed it??)

I believe that jbrown has provided the sockets for linux that would be
needed for her proxy task. A port of TCP4U to linux. IIRC.
What kat is asking for is a sort of reverse proxy. With bells and
whistles.
Bells & Whistles:
* Somehow be told what her dynamic IP is this time.
* Web interface?
* Windows Client side program to send her IP to the proxy?
* Denial to foward to her from an IP because she said so.
* Web interface?
* Add this IP to the list.
You best date it in your database.
She will probably want to know its age.
Add a lifetime feature? - Length of time to Refuse.
* Automatically removed Aged IP's?
* Manual method to remove IP's
* Settable Max # of connections to kat limit.
* She is on dial-up!
How many connections could she possibly handle at the same time?
* Wants it to be in EU. Period.
REASON:
* Define new rules and features for the proxy using Euphoria code.
She knows Euphoria, mIRC, and probably DOS batch.
As smart as she is. I don't think she wants to go out learning
any new languages all over the place. PERL, Python, C, Java...
I'm sure the list goes on. Appears to have allergic reactions
or something. (Reality: Learning is very time consuming.)
I don't have more to add at the moment.
Other irc.sorcery.net #euphoria chatroom participants of this topic
should add their two cents worth to what I have stated here.
kat's proxy program has its best chance to see the light of day when
all of its expected features and problems have been exposed.
I truly hope that her project does come to exist.
It is simply not within my current programming abilities.
It would take me at least 2 or 3 years at my current rate of learning
and devotion. (I have a severe lack of devotion.)
Sincerely, Lucius L. Hilley III - Unkmar
PS: Kat, please don't be overly offended by my remarks here.
