SOCKSIFY(1) socksify SOCKSIFY(1)

socksify - Run an application using a Socks 5 proxy

socksify [program] [argument...]

The socksify script tries to fool programs that were not written to work with Socks 5 proxy to use a Socks5 proxy nevertheless. program's network connections are covertly redirected to a Socks 5 proxy, using tricks with shared libraries.

socksify tries to intercept certain system function calls from program that create network connections, which are then redirected through the Socks 5 proxy server. socksify should work with most programs, but may occasionally fail with applications that use sophisticated methods of using network connections.

socksify is not available on all systems. It is available only on systems that use the Solaris/Linux/BSD-style shared libraries.

The Socks 5 server is specified in /usr/local/etc/socksrc.
