config FREETZ_PACKAGE_REDSOCKS bool "redsocks 0.1 (binary only)" select FREETZ_LIB_libevent default n help This tool allows you to redirect any TCP connection to SOCKS or HTTPS proxy using your firewall, so redirection is system-wide. Why is that useful? I can suggest following reasons: * you use tor and don't want any TCP connection to leak * you use DVB ISP and this ISP provides internet connectivity with some special daemon that may be also called "Internet accelerator" and this accelerator acts as proxy. Globax is example of such an accelerator Linux/iptables, OpenBSD/pf and FreeBSD/ipfw are supported. Linux/iptables is well-tested, other implementations may have bugs, your bugreports are welcome. Features: Redirect any TCP connection to SOCKS4, SOCKS5 or HTTPS (HTTP/CONNECT) proxy server. Login/password authentication is supported for SOCKS5 connections. SOCKS4 supports only username, password is ignored. Redirect any HTTP connection to proxy that does not support transparent proxying (e.g. old SQUID had broken `acl myport' for such connections).
