## 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. Unix domain sockets can be specified with -iunix:/path/to/socket syntax (e.g., -iunix:/var/run/proxy.sock). On Linux, abstract sockets use -iunix:@socketname syntax.
| -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.
