I found a neato program, called rinetd..    It's a simple, small program,
you configure, make, and make install, and then make a file in
/etc/rinetd.conf,

remotehost port localhost port
remotehost2 port2 localhost2 port2

Real Examples:

208.142.83.4 5400 192.168.0.3 25
208.142.86.4 5900 192.168.0.34 5900
