A powerful and easy to use Proxy/Firewall for internet connection sharing. ComTun has many advanced features useful for both business and home use. With support for access control and banner blocking, you have ultimate control of your connection.
A fully customizable firewall protects you from hackers, and works seemlessly with the proxy service. ComTun uses NAT to give your clients a transparent connection to the Internet, and can be used to configure your clients automatically (with DHCP).
Traditional daemons can also be used, if necessary, but in most cases are only needed to suppliment the NAT connection. System administrators concerned with sharing connections with certain services or to certain sites will find that ComTun offers almost unlimited control over the client connection.
Comtun can be used in your home, small business, even in an enterprise company. After you install and start running Comtun from one of your computers which connects direct to the Internet , all other computers will share the same connection by TCP/IP, thus your computer becomes a gateway between the Internet and your local network. Since the gateway machine acts as a firewall by only opening a few well-known ports, no other users on Internet can access your LAN, thus Comtun protects you from the attack of Internet hackers.
