× Few antiviral products inadequately detect 3proxy as Trojan.Daemonize, Backdoor.Daemonize, etc and many detect 3proxy as a PUA (potentially unwanted program). It may cause browser warning on download page. 3proxy is not trojan or backdoor and contains no functionality except described in documentation. Clear explanation of this fact is given, for example, in Microsoft's article.

NAME

socks - SOCKS 4/4.5/5 gateway service

SYNOPSIS

socks [-d] [-l[[@]logfile]] [-pport] [-iinternal_ip] [-eexternal_ip]

DESCRIPTION

socks is SOCKS server. It supports SOCKSv4, SOCKSv4.5 (extension to v4 for server side name resolution) and SOCKSv5. SOCKSv5 specification allows both outgoing and reverse TCP connections and UDP portmapping.

OPTIONS

-I

Inetd mode. Standalone service only.

-d

Daemonise. Detach service from console and run in the background.

-t

Be silenT. Do not log start/stop/accept error records.

-u

Never ask for username authentication

-e

External address. IP address of interface proxy should initiate connections from. External IP must be specified if you need incoming connections. By default system will deside which address to use in accordance with routing table.

-N

External NAT address 3proxy reports to client for BIND and UDPASSOC By default external address is reported. It’s only useful in the case of IP-IP NAT (will not work for PAT)

-i

Internal address. IP address proxy accepts connections to. By default connection to any interface is accepted. It´s usually unsafe.

-p

Port. Port proxy listens for incoming connections. Default is 1080.

-l

Log. By default logging is to stdout. If logfile is specified logging is to file. Under Unix, if ´@´ preceeds logfile, syslog is used for logging.

-S

Increase or decrease stack size. You may want to try something like -S8192 if you experience 3proxy crashes.

CLIENTS

You should use client with SOCKS support or use some socksification support (for example SocksCAP or FreeCAP). Configure client to use internal_ip and port. SOCKS allows to use almost any application protocol without limitation. This implementation also allows to open priviledged port on server (if socks has sufficient privileges). If you need to control access use 3proxy(8) instead.
