linux-howto

http://www.linuxforums.org – i would like to setup two transparent proxy server that use Ubuntu Server and Squid as transparent proxy. My idea is to synchronize the cache between Proxy 1 and proxy 2. so both Proxy server will have same cache inside them. I wish to use Rsync that is an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer. It is possible?between the proxy, if both proxy run at the same time or only one will run at one time?.it will have a firewall that is pfSense that will redirect traffic to each proxy server. ..can someone show me how the configuration..since i new to this p/s embeded link is (HowTos)

Stories similar to synchronize Cache between two transparent proxy server

Hi,

I'm mon webmaster/developer and I'm new in Linux. Our office suddenly needs to setup a proxy server. Ubuntu Squid proxy server immediately came as an option for us. The question is: does transparent squid proxy configuration using Ubuntu will have no problem with computers running on Windows OS?

Thanks in advance.. Sorry if this is a very noob question.

I am wondering if it is possible to manipulate (Insert/Delete) data in the cache proxy server DB... well I'm not sure how a cache proxy server store the data. But What I am interested in is to add resources to the data base of my cache proxy before it gets it.

I am running perfectly running reverse proxy server for multiple domains, with 1 TB of RAM, 160 TB of HDD, fast as hell, running at this moment 364 websites, where pass thru data is around 1-5 GB per second.

Transmission-tracker via proxy 3 years 31 weeks ago

Hello ,

I' m having a problem with the settings in : preferences ---> trackers --->

tracker-proxy

In proxy-server I've : //xxxxxxxx.com

In proxy-port : 3128 ( I run squid on the same machine )

But ... as soon as I activate the "connect with tracker via proxy" button ,

The man page to yum.conf describes several proxy related variables:

proxy URL to the proxy server that yum should use. proxy_username username to use for proxy proxy_password password for this proxy

But how to specify a SOCKS proxy?

I assume that the above is just for normal HTTP proxies ...

I've just set up a squid transparent proxy inside my network. The proxy works fine, however it seems some sort of caching policy is causing the proxy to instead go grab a copy of the website, it's simply pointing to 127.0.0.1's HTTP web server (which is NGINX with multiple virtual hosts).

I'm a beginner in this area, please bare with me if my request is messy.

I need to configure a proxy server 1) which will allow my clients to connect to my proxy server then 2) they will be able to see a login page. when i asked some IT gurus they told me "configure the forwarding url in proxy". how do i achieve this? what kind of proxy i should use ? Please help, thanks in advance.

[ubuntu] Proxy socks error! 2 years 21 weeks ago

I set socks5 proxy system> preferences> network middleman to connect through wifi to a router with Firewall may have to unlock something? ping is normal, but if you want to connect to the site by the browser it shows the error:

Code: Unable to connect to the proxy server.

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your computer and other servers.

I am trying to reduce internet bandwidth consumption. I have installed squid as a transparent proxy server and it is currently getting all traffic from port 80. I am using the proxy_stats.gawk utility to generate reports. I am still only logging 1/4 of the traffic the ISP actually reports. Can i get all traffic on all other ports to go though the proxy as well. i.e. VOIP... How can i Achieve this?
