OK

that's what we're doing

version 0.1.1 only support one red-side address - the 0.1.2 beta we're
running provides multiple red-side addresses
but only for incoming - outgoing always presents the base address.

it use ipchains which means no session based rules, so you end up with
all
ports over 1024 open !!!

Apart from that it is fine.
