Load balance to proxies

view full story
linux-howto

http://serverfault.com – I have installed several proxy programs whose IP addresses are, for example, 127.0.0.1:8580(use http), 127.0.0.1:9050(use socks5). You may regrard them as Tor and its alternatives. You know, certain proxy programs are faster than others at times, while at other times, they would be slower. The Firefox add-in, AutoProxy and FoxyProxy Standard, can define a list of rules such as any urls matching the pattern *.google.com should be proxied to 127.0.0.1:8580 using socks5 protocol. But the rule is "static". I want *.google.com to be proxied to the fastest proxy, no matter which one. I think that (HowTos)

I have currently setup a SOCKS5 proxy by creating a SSH Tunnel on a local Ubuntu server to a Linux based VPS. I use polipo as a small proxy to pass the requests through the SOCKS5 proxy (DNS Resolution happens on the VPS side.)

Now, on the client end I use firefox and have an addon which has...

I'm accessing an http resource using Chrome, FoxyProxy without any problems. The proxy is defined as socks5 in the standard port 1080.

I've tried accessing the same resource using cURL (actual URLs changed for privacy reasons):

$ curl -vvv -socks5 SOCKS_SERVER:1080 -X GET "THE_URL_FROM_BROWSER"

And got:

i am having trouble chaining proxies.

I have tor running in my ubuntu.

I want to make ubuntu like a proxy server but this proxy server must use tor proxy as source.

let me explain: A: tor proxy: 127.0.0.1:9050 (SOCKS5) B: ubuntu (route tor proxy to phone as a proxy server) C: my Phone (wants to use tor proxy)

I installed squid3 but it used direct internet.

I would like to use a socks5 proxy (with authentication) with some programs. I found proxychains. I installed this and added my proxyIP, port, user and password to /etc/proxychains.conf.

Hi all,I'm trying to channel all my traffic through tor but KDE doesn't seem to recognize my proxy settings. To set up the proxy, I went to System Settings -> Network Settings -> Proxy -> Use manually specified proxy configuration and set the value of SOCKS proxy to socks://localhost, PORT to 9050.

How do I get rtorrent to use a socks5 proxy? I've tried to get socks5 to work with rtorrent, but it doesn't seem to have any impact.

Setup the socks5 proxy on port 9800:

ssh -ND 9800 user@otherhost

in .rtorrent.rc

http_proxy=127.0.0.7:9800 proxy_address=127.0.0.7:9800

It cannot download any data from tracker.

Tracker: [Server returned nothing (no headers, no data)]

Basically, I need what expressvpn.com is offering.

Thus far I tried:
