12 socks is SOCKS server. It supports SOCKSv4, SOCKSv4.5 (extension to v4
13 for server side name resolution) and SOCKSv5. SOCKSv5 specification
14 allows both outgoing and reverse TCP connections and UDP portmapping.
15
17 -I Inetd mode. Standalone service only.
18
19 -d Daemonise. Detach service from console and run in the back‐
20 ground.
21
22 -t Be silenT. Do not log start/stop/accept error records.
23
24 -u Never ask for username authentication
25
26 -e External address. IP address of interface proxy should initiate
27 connections from. External IP must be specified if you need
28 incoming connections. By default system will deside which
29 address to use in accordance with routing table.
30
31 -i Internal address. IP address proxy accepts connections to. By
32 default connection to any interface is accepted. It´s usually
33 unsafe.
34
35 -p Port. Port proxy listens for incoming connections. Default is
36 1080.
37
38 -l Log. By default logging is to stdout. If logfile is specified
39 logging is to file. Under Unix, if ´@´ preceeds logfile, syslog
40 is used for logging.
41
42 -S Increase or decrease stack size. You may want to try something
43 like -S8192 if you experience 3proxy crashes.
44
46 You should use client with SOCKS support or use some socksification
47 support (for example SocksCAP or FreeCAP). Configure client to use
48 internal_ip and port. SOCKS allows to use almost any application pro‐
49 tocol without limitation. This implementation also allows to open priv‐
50 iledged port on server (if socks has sufficient privileges). If you
51 need to control access use 3proxy(8) instead.
