Thanks. I do not thinks it provides what I am looking for.

I am not looking for an application performing a specific task, but a mechanism
to get the __original__ destination address and port of packets forwarded to a
local UDP proxy by ipfw fwd rules. As I figured it out until now, The original destination
address may be obtained by IP_RECVDSTADDR on 9.0+ (but not on 8.x and older versions) but
there seems to be no mechanism get the _original_ destination _port_ (Apart from this
missing mechanism, my proxy is functional and performs what it is intended to do).
