Maybe add that it’s primarily for test purposes.

Very nice stuff!

Note that this creates *TCP* port forwardings (see
‘port-forwardings->qemu-options’ in (gnu system vm)).

Perhaps you’ll want UDP forwarding?

Should be ‘test-equal’ since you’re comparing strings.

I learned from
<https://serverfault.com/questions/181956/is-it-true-that-a-nameserver-have-to-answer-queries-over-tcp>
that DNS servers are now supposed to listen for TCP requests, but are we
sure this is the case here?

What error do you get?  Does the ‘connect’ call fail?  Does the message
go through?

Thanks!

Ludo’.
