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 sessions 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 specified 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.
