SOCKSIFY(1) General Commands Manual SOCKSIFY(1)
NAME
socksify - dynamically SOCKSifies a program
SYNOPSIS
socksify program [ arguments ]
DESCRIPTION
socksify is Dante's equivalent of the NEC SOCKS' runsocks. sockisfy uses LD_PRELOAD environment variable to wrap all networking-related
system calls so that programs can go thought a SOCKS server that was installed as part of a firewall.
SEE ALSO
dante.conf(5)
NOTES
A more permanent solution would be to add the LD_PRELOAD environment value to the shell startup files. Then all non-set[ug]id applications
that are linked dynamically would be socksified. However this can have bad side-effects.
