PROXY-SERVER(1C)					      PROXY-SERVER(1C)

NAME
       proxy-server - serializing, transaction logging http proxy server

SYNOPSIS
       proxy-server    [server-ip]   [server-port]   [:prefix=filename_prefix]
       [:overwrite=false] [:start=0]

DESCRIPTION
       proxy-server is a crude http proxy server which accepts one  connection
       at  a  time  and	logs all information about the transaction between the
       client and server to a set of files containing a	sequence number.

       The client request is logged to file type  req  the  responsed  headers
       from  the server	are file type hdr and the content from the server to a
       file type which depends on the mime type	of the result, txt  ,  html  ,
       gif  ,  jpg are supported, and the default for any unknown are unspeci-
       fied type is dat

   COMMAND LINE	OPTIONS
       [server-ip]
	       The server-ip defaults to 0.0.0.0.

       [server-port]
	       The server-port defaults	to 9000.

       :prefix=XXXX
	       The XXXXX is the	prefix used for	the transaction	log files.  It
	       defaults	to YEAR	MONTH DAY HOUR MINUTE SECOND of	the  time  the
	       command was stated.

       :start=index
	       The index plus 1	is the first filename created.

       :overwrite=status
	       The  status  is false, the default, to prevent the proxy	server
	       from overwriting	its log	files. A setting of  true  will	 allow
	       files  to  be overwritten, and a	setting	of skip	will cause the
	       filename	counter	 to  be	 incremented  until  an	 overwrite  is
	       avoided.

BUGS
       This utility isn't robust enough	to run continuously as a proxy server.
       It  is intended to be run from the command line,	to be monitored	during
       use, and	to be restarted	manually if needed. You	might see errors  mes-
       sages such as empty request from	client,	accept (errobj Protocol	error)
       and  recv (errobj Connection reset by peer), from time to time, depend-
       ing on the client browser and tcp stack.
