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.

AUTHOR

       Dante was developed for Inferno Nettverk A/S, Norway by:
	- Michael Shuldman <michaels@inet.no>: Design and implementation.
	- Karl-Andre Skevik <karls@inet.no>: Autoconf and porting.

NAME

       tsocks - Shell wrapper to simplify the use of the tsocks(8) library to transparently allow an application to use a SOCKS proxy

SYNOPSIS

       tsocks [application [application's arguments]]
       or tsocks [-on|-off]
       or tsocks

DESCRIPTION

       tsocks is a wrapper between the tsocks library and the application what you would like to run socksified.

OPTIONS

       [application [application's arguments]]
	      run  the	application  as specified with the environment (LD_PRELOAD) set such that tsocks(8) will transparently proxy SOCKS connec-
	      tions in that program

       [-on|-off]
	      this option adds or removes tsocks(8) from the LD_PRELOAD environment variable. When tsocks(8) is  in  this  variable  all  executed
	      applications  are  automatically	socksified. If you want to use this function, you HAVE to source the shell script from yours, like
	      this: "source /usr/bin/tsocks" or ". /usr/bin/tsocks"
	      Example:
	      ". tsocks -on" -- add the tsocks lib to LD_PRELOAD (don't forget the leading dot!)
	      ". tsocks -off" -- remove the tsocks lib from LD_PRELOAD (don't forget the leading dot!)

       [-show|-sh]
	      show the current value of the LD_PRELOAD variable

       <without any argument>
	      create a new shell with LD_PRELOAD including tsocks(8).

AUTHOR

       This script was created by Tamas SZERB <toma@rulez.org> for the debian package of tsocks. It (along with this manual page) have since  been
       adapted into the main tsocks project and modified.
