NAME
proxy - HTTP proxy gateway service

SYNOPSIS
proxy [-d][-a] [-l[[@]logfile]] [-pport] [-iinternal_ip] [-eexternal_ip]

DESCRIPTION
proxy is HTTP gateway service with HTTPS and FTP over HTTPS support.

OPTIONS

-I  Inetd mode. Standalone service only.

-d  Daemonize. Detach service from console and run in the background.

-t  Be silenT. Do not log start/stop/accept error records.

-u  Never ask for username authentication

-e  External address. IP address of the interface the proxy should initiate connections from. By default, the system will decide which address to use in accordance with the routing table.

-i  Internal address. IP address the proxy accepts connections to. By default, connections to any interface are accepted. It's usually unsafe.

-a  Anonymous. Hide information about client.

-a1 Anonymous. Show fake information about client.

-p  Port. Port proxy listens for incoming connections. Default is 3128.

-l  Log. By default logging is to stdout. If logfile is specified logging is to file. Under Unix, if '@' preceeds logfile, syslog is used for logging.

-S  Increase or decrease stack size. You may want to try something like -S8192 if you experience 3proxy crashes.

CLIENTS
You should use a client with HTTP proxy support or configure a router to redirect HTTP traffic to the proxy (transparent proxy). Configure the client to connect to internal_ip and port. HTTPS support allows you to use almost any TCP-based protocol. If you need to limit clients, use 3proxy(8) instead.
