General :: Any Multi Protocol Proxy Server Software
Aug 29, 2010
-my vpn connection constantly gets disconnected in linux mint but not in my windows 7 or mac os 10.5.8 and there are no retry options in here in case the connection drops?
-is there any multi protocol proxy server software available for linux (socks,http,https)? preferably free.
my google search returned that Squid is the most popular proxy software for linux but its either freakishly hard to install and use or there is just no simple beginner guide for it.
-what's the hotkey to switch between workspaces?
I will be relocating to a permanent residence sometime in the next year or two. I've recently begun thinking about the best way to implement a home-based network. It occurred to me that the most elegant solution might be the use of VM technology to eliminate as much hardware and wiring as possible.My thinking is this: Install a multi-core system and configure it to run several VMs, one each for a firewall, a caching proxy server, a mail server, a web server. Additionally, I would like to run 2-4 VMs as remote (RDP)workstations, using diskless workstations to boot the VMs over powerline ethernet.The latest powerline technology (available later this year) will allow multiple devices on a residential circuit operating at near gigabit speed, just like legacy wired networks.
In theory, the above would allow me to consolidate everything but the disklessworkstations on a single server and eliminate all wired (and wireless) connections except the broadband connection to the Internet and the cabling to the nearest power outlets. It appears technically possible, but I'm not sure about the various virtual connections among VMs. In theory, each VM should be able to communicate with the other as if it was on the same network via the server data bus, but what about setting up firewall zones? Any internal I/O bandwidth bottlenecks? Any other potential "gotchas", caveats, issues? (Other than the obvious requirement of having enough CPU and RAM).Any thoughts or observations welcome, especially if they are from real world experience in a VM environment. BTW--in case you're wondering why I'm posting here, it's because I run Debian on all my workstations/servers (running VirtualBox as a VM for Windows XP on one workstation).
I have a network with two WAN links. One link is supposed to be for Senior Management and the other for the rest of the company. Currently all traffic seems to be going via one WAN link.
Is it possible to setup squid to select the link to use by checking the mac address of the requesting computer
Currently my DHCP Server is working now what i want to have is auto detection of squid proxy in any browser but I still got an error in my dhcp server when I restart it.
My Config:
# DHCP configuration generated by Firestarter ddns-update-style interim; ignore client-updates;
I am trying to set up my squid3 proxy as a transparent proxy - right now, I have to manually configure browsers to access via proxy. I understand that I have to put some rules into Iptables and also some further directives in the squid.conf.
I have a couple of specific questions. The proxy server is running on a Ubuntu 10.04 workstation and this machine also acts as a dhcp server for the network. I have just one subnet , namely 192.168.0.1-254 There is only 1 network card. Is it much easier to put in a second network card or is it just as easy to configure the existing lan card as a dual IP?
Is it necessary to configure these 2 IP's ( whether they are via 2 lan cards or dual IP on single card ) to be on different subnets. i.e ETH0 192.168.0.1 and ETH1 192.168.1.1 or is ok to have something like ETH0 192.168.0.1 and ETH1 192.168.0.254 ( where ETH0 is the one facing the LAN and ETH1 points to the modem router / switch i.e The Internet ) Where specifically do I save the Iptables rule configuration file and what must I call it ?
Scenario:A - Local Unix machineB - socks proxy server port 1080C - remote mysql server port 3306I want to connect to the remote mysql server(C) from local unix machine(A) using sock proxy(B).
Does anyone have an UP TO DATE document, or know how to set up a standard RHEL 4.1.2... 64-bit box to be a YUM Proxy machine? I have found several manuals, all being dated a while ago.
Connected to the DSL-MODEM is the PC in question that I can't connect to when using Squid. If I bypass the Squid from the Network and go through the router I can connect to the PC.
I want to be able to use the Squid server and still access the PC connected to the Modem and I want to have a Squid SAR report of the Network PC's accessing the PC on the modem.
The Modem/Router/Squid/Network all use the same IP range, but the PC on the modem has a different IP.
We installed the apache server on oraapps.yan.com. we are planning to use as a proxy server.we have 4 servers inlcuding oraapps.yan.com. Each of them has 3 or more applications. I would like to redirect them to oraapps.yan.com. is it possible. if its how to do that.
I have just installed ubuntu server 9.10.Now i wish to make it my mail server and proxy server along with my web server can i. The config of the macgine is PIV 512MB ram, 80Gb HDD. The enviroment that we have is. We have 2 diff isp in the workplace, 1 is the main link and the other is a failover link. At present we use wingate which has the facility for the same. My question is because i am not so used to command is there a GUI based proxy server for linux which is same or similar like wingate or winproxy. how to setup all these so that i can learn and then start spreading the linux into everyones mind so that we are not bugged i with ms.
I have deployed proxy server in my office about a month ago. I have about 7-8 client accessing it through port 3128. After some days of deployment, my server started creating problems. Some clients were not able to access proxy while other clients were accessing it. The error message which I found in cache.log was:
Code: WARNING: Closing client 192.168.2.99 connection due to lifetime timeout
In this way it was disconnecting clients randomly. The problem resolves when I restart proxy server
Im sending my cache.log file
Code: Last login: Mon Nov 15 12:37:29 2010 from 192.168.2.2 [root@localhost ~]# cat /var/log/squid/cache.log 2010/11/15 08:11:49| storeDirWriteCleanLogs: Starting... 2010/11/15 08:11:49| Finished. Wrote 57740 entries.
If you leave your hotmail account signed in on a proxy server, can others access that account by just typing in [url] in their browsers? ie does the proxy server share all connections to the same site with logins?
I live in a campus & I use wifi...I know the server host IP but dont know ftp port number....so I can not open ftp pages through google chrome as I cant specify the port number. Is there any way to know the port number?
I just finished installing my squid on linux 10 SP1. I setup my squid.conf file and the access lists (acls). When I try to browse the internet on any page, my brower returns a plain page with the words "It works" What do i do?
how to implement proxy server with firewall and the client users should be authinticated by asking username & password while opening their web browsers and finally i want to see the websites visted list of all the client computers On cent os 5.3
how to connect the database to proxy server.example:: this is the acl in squid.conf to block the website.the keyword that want to block store in file .txt
a bit info, the data that stored in database is a keyword to block the website if a keyword in blacklist match with the url that want access by user. if match so then the user cannot access the website.
I've been doing some security testing in a lab environment that does not have direct internet access. It's actually a little complicated: From home to connect to my lab machine, I
1. SSH to machineA. 2. SSH from machineA to machineB
where machineB is my actual lab machine. neither machineA or machineB allow anything other than SSH, and machineB is only accessible from machineA. However, I really need to run yum on machineB. I have managed to get internet access via Firefox on machineB by creating a series of SOCKS proxy via SSH.
where machineC has internet without limits placed. This is the only way I have managed to get internet working. I tried using ssh -L all the way from machineB->machineA->machineC but it didn't work (even when setting Firefox to use http proxy). I tried using ssh -D all the way, but again that doesn't work either.
I do have access via Firefox using socks proxy. However, yum update fails to retrieve mirror list, and from what I have found I don't believe yum supports socks proxy directly. Instead, it uses http_proxy / ftp_proxy. how to get yum to go out over the SOCKS proxy I created (same one using in Firefox)? It seems like since Firefox can access the internet and everything without issues, i should be able to get yum to tunnel through the same connection to access everything.... I tried
