Summary : Library for catching network connections, redirecting them on a SOCKS server
|
Description :
tsocks is designed for use in machines which are firewalled from the Internet. It avoids the need to recompile applications like lynx or telnet so they can use SOCKS to reach the Internet. It behaves much like the SOCKSified TCP/IP stacks seen on other platforms.
tsocks is a library to allow transparent SOCKS proxying. It wraps the normal connect() function. When a connection is attempted, it consults the configuration file (which is defined at configure time but defaults to /etc/tsocks.conf) and determines if the IP address specified is local. If it is not, the library redirects the connection to a SOCKS server specified in the configuration file. It then negotiates that connection with the SOCKS server and passes the connection back to the calling program.
