"A colleague of mine introduced me to iptables:

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -d 192.168.1.100 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.15"

"Add the server IP as a subinterface on the server. Add another IP in that network to the client machine as a subinterface.

This assumes they are currently on the same network.

server# ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.1.100

client# ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.1.101"
