SIMPLEPROXY(1) General Commands Manual SIMPLEPROXY(1)NAME
simpleproxy - Simple tcp socket proxy
SYNOPSIS
simpleproxy [-7] [-v] [-V] [-d] [-i] -P <POP3 users file> -L [<local host>:]<local port> -R <remote host>:<remote port> -S <proxy
host>:<proxy port>
DESCRIPTION
The simpleproxy program acts as a simple tcp proxy. It opens listening socket on local machine and forwards any connection to the remote
host.
OPTIONS
simpleproxy accepts following options:
-V Version information.
-v Makes simpleproxy to write activity information to syslog or stderr.
-7 Makes simpleproxy to strip 8th bit.
-i Use this flag when starting simpleproxy from INETD.
-d By default simpleproxy does not detach itself from control terminal and writes all messages to stderr. This option will detach it
from terminal and make it write messages to syslog.
-L [<local host>:]<local port>
Local host and port name or number to bind for listening. Host name is optional.
-R <remote host>:<remote port>
Remote host and port name or number
-P <POP3 users list>
If specified, simpleproxy will load list of users from the <filename> (one per line). After this it will be forwarding POP3 ses-
sions only if client trying to authenificate as this user.
-S <proxy host>:<proxy port>
HTTPS proxy server host and port name or number.
-a <HTTP Auth User>:<HTTP Auth Password>
Authenticate to the HTTPS proxy server with the given userid and password. This option performs BASIC HTTP authentication as spec-
ified in RFC 2617. Used only in conjunction with -S.
-t <trace file>
If specified, simpleproxy will dump all data that passes through connection to the specified file.
BUGS
Only tcp ports are supported.

Net::Proxy::Connector::connect_ssl(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::Proxy::Connector::connect_ssl(3pm)NAME
Net::Proxy::Connector::connect_ssl - Create SSL/CONNECT tunnels through HTTP proxies
SYNOPSIS
# sample proxy using Net::Proxy::Connector::tcp
# and Net::Proxy::Connector::connect_ssl
use Net::Proxy;
# listen on localhost:6789
# and proxy to remotehost:9876 through proxy.company.com:8080
# using the given credentials
my $proxy = Net::Proxy->new(
in => { type => 'tcp', port => '6789' },
out => {
type => 'connect_ssl',
host => 'remotehost',
port => '9876',
proxy_host => 'proxy.company.com',
proxy_port => '8080',
proxy_user => 'jrandom',
proxy_pass => 's3kr3t',
proxy_agent => 'Mozilla/4.04 (X11; I; SunOS 5.4 sun4m)',
},
);
$proxy->register();
Net::Proxy->mainloop();
DESCRIPTION
"Net::Proxy::Connecter::connect_ssl" is a "Net::Proxy::Connector" that uses the HTTP CONNECT method to ask the proxy to create a tunnel to
an outside server. The data is then encrypted using SSL.
Obviously, you'll need a server that understands SSL (or a proxy using "Net::Proxy::Connector::ssl") at the other end.
This connector is only an "out" connector.
In addition to the options listed below, this connector accepts all "SSL_..." options to "IO::Socket::SSL". They are transparently passed
through to the appropriate "IO::Socket::SSL" methods when upgrading the socket to SSL.
CONNECTOR OPTIONS
"Net::Proxy::Connector::connect" accepts the following options:
"out"
o host
The destination host.
o port
The destination port.
o proxy_host
The web proxy name or address.
o proxy_port
The web proxy port.
o proxy_user
The authentication username for the proxy.
o proxy_pass
The authentication password for the proxy.
o proxy_agent
The user-agent string to use when connecting to the proxy.

HISTORY
Because "Net::Proxy" blocks when it tries to connect to itself, it wasn't possible to pass an SSL-encrypted connection through a proxy with
a single script: you needed one for the SSL encapsulation, and another one for bypassing the proxy with the "CONNECT" HTTP method.
See "Net::Proxy::Connector::connect" and "Net::Proxy::Connector::ssl" for details.
