How To Install A Socks Proxy For Web Browsing On My Own Server?
Aug 6, 2007
when I am on the internet port 80 will sometimes not work, i.e. MSN, email, FTP is still working, but I can't browse any pages. This has led me to believe that the proxies they are using to check what sites we are visiting are buggered. It is fruitless trying to get the ISPs to improve... this is Thailand.
Anyway, I have a couple of my own servers in the US and am looking at installing some sort of socks proxy on them so that I don't have to use port 80 to surf webpages. Then there wouldn't be any more downtime for me.
Can someone point me to a SECURE program that would be ideal and safe for my intended use?
what webpages we can view using proxies at the ISPs.

I just bought a dedicated server with 64 Additional IP's. My question is though, how would I go about setting up SOCKS proxys on them? I've setup some before on some linux box's, but never before on windows.
I have a ssh tunnel for a socks v4/v5 proxy. I have a particular program that I want to use through that proxy, but it does not have proxy settings. I have read various articles suggesting that you can run any program through a proxy with the proper software, however I have not found any software suggesting what it is. Does anyone know of a client program that allows you to reroute a program/ports through a socks 4/5?
is there an option to disable directory browsing (browsing a directory without an index file) in WHM? I have seen a way to do it via .htaccess but this would not be possible as there are over 100 sites on the server...
Well I finally got around to getting my IIS up and running which will save some time with uploading various files to check that they are working correctly but now I have run into a new problem. What used to happen with my IIS is it would list out all of the folders which I had in the wwwroot and I would simply navigate through and select which site needed to be tested.
At the moment, I have cleared out the wwwroot folder entirely since all of the stuff in there was to do with a "Windows XP Professional" page which appeared upon installation.
However, now that I don't need it anymore, I decided to clear it out and test IIS out by making a new folder called "sites" into wwwroot. Now though, it simply comes up with a "Directory Listing Denied. This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed." error message, even though I have changed the permissions on the wwwroot folder to allow writing etc.
Could this be because it's IIS 5.1 and I need to install IIS 6.0 instead or is something else wrong? I know for a fact that my operating system (Windows Media Center Edition 2005) will do this list as I have had it before, back before I installed Vista and then decided to come back to MCE.
For some reason, I want to enable directory browsing for some of my sites. It works for sub folders, but apache won't list for root folder. For example
I put .htaccess in the root folder, I also configure it through VirtualHost or Directory in httpd.conf,
I use Options +Indexes
Does any body know how can I enable directory listing even in the root folder of a web site?
how to enable directory browsing cpanel by front page
i have mod front page in apache and Install FrontPage Extensions to all site in server but i can't browser directory with front page how i can fix that?
It seems that since my latest update of 12.0.18. Now everytime I login to the Admin interface of plesk. I am prompted to relogin several times when browsing using file manager or clicking on domains or sitting idle for like 15 seconds.
It can do this up to 5 times in a 5 minute period or while not even being idle.
I have a proxy site which is hosted with a proxy host, do i have to use proxy hosting as i have an account with another host i might want to use. The proxy hosting has run out.
I'm outsourcing some works overseas and my oversea employees are directly contacting the customer to discuss his needs. Everything is fine except when a client sees the email IP address (he is dealing with a local company, how come he is being emailed me from India or some similar places).
So I decided to create a proxy server for the oversea employees. I need the one that requires the browser setting change to have all the traffic passing through the server/VPS, therefore the IP will be the IP of the server and there's no way to find the original IP (of course no problem is it exists in the proxy server, but not showing in any way to the customer).
The problem is I absolutely have no idea how to do this.
- Can this be accomplished on a VPS or a server is required?
- Do I need a Linux or Windows OS?
- Do I need any software? If so, could you recommend some.
I'd like to set up my server as a proxy for my own private use, where in my home PC's browser I can tell it the server's IP, port, and the password that I set, and it will function like a normal proxy. How can I do that? What software do I need and so on.
Does anyone have services to recommend? I simply need a proxy server so I have a private IP. Right now, my ISP assigns IPs as a pool among a lot of people, so downloading sites like rapidshare or megafile doesn't work for me.
What I need is a socks5 proxy that is available 24/7, dedicated private ip, and a fast server. Does anyone offer these types of information? What I am afaid of is that people may install keyloggers over free proxies or even some companies may do that as well,
I operate a co-located server in a US datacenter (dedicated to projects of my small business, not a hosting service.) The OS is Windows 2003 Server.
I wondered if anyone could recommend proxy server software which I could use to access the web from a US-based IP address even when I am overseas. (This would be helpful for getting streaming internet radio, which has started to block access from non-US IP addresses.)
I know there are endless proxy servers available, but most are big and complicated, with 255 irrelevant features intended for regulating the internet access of a small business. I need something much simpler, preferably placing little load on the machine. The only feature needed is access restriction so only I can use it.
Is it possible to implement reverse proxy for Sever-A through Sever-B.
The issue is let's say, Server-A is located in Network-A, and the Sever-B is located in Network-B. And the users in Network-B are allowed to access only to Sever-B while the Sever-B itself can access to Server-A. So, when the users from Network-B access to Sever-B, the traffic will be proxied through Sever-B to Server-A transparently without letting the users notice about how's the traffics go. The Server-B will be linux, thus squid is the primary proxy application to deal with. Is it possible to do with squid or it needs some other application?
How about a comparison of mod_proxy for apache vs. squid as all Sever-B should do is forward the requests coming from Network-B to forward to Sever-A and acting as a middle box between the two network scopes transparently. All the users in Network-B should do is accessing the Sever-B and the requests will be transparently going to Server-A without any configuration is done at their browser or any kind of NAT/Firewall rules on either of the networks.
I have a server that is running linux with WHM/cPanel , some of servers are rejecting mails through server and says that your server is open proxy mail server.
how to check that our server is open proxy or stop open proxy and how can i prevent our server from spammer?
I am recommending to a friend who is starting a proxy site, to do a successful launch by getting a dedicated server to host the single proxy domain.
He does not want to spend more than $40 per month.
Should he be considering a VPS, or are proxy usually against TOC of a VPS?
I have found a low end server at OLM.net with plenty of bandwidth allocation for $29.95. Is it powerful enough to sustain traffic from a proxy site that is just starting out?
