ss5(1) General Commands Manual ss5(1) NAME ss5 - A daemon that implements the SOCKS v4 and v5 protocol to execute proxy requests for a client SYNOPSIS ss5 [options] DESCRIPTION ss5 is a socks server that implements the SOCKS v4 and v5 protocol. As a proxy server, ss5 authenticates, profiles and processes network re- quests for clients. It establishes connections to application hosts for client applications. When the client attempts to access the network, the client connects to the ss5 daemon instead of the application host. Following authentication, clients request that ss5 perform network ac- tivities for the client. The activities might include: CONNECT BIND UDP ASSOCIATE The ss5 protocol is independent of application protocols, and can as- sist with different networking services, including telnet, ftp, finger, whois, gopher, and WWW access. The ss5 daemon supports one authentication method: Username/Password - Refer to ss5.passwd(5) or ss5.pam(5) for addi- tional information. The ss5 daemon supports two profiling methods: File - Refer to ss5.conf(5) for additional information. Ldap - Refer to ss5.conf(5) for additional information. ss5 can run: standalone - the default prefork processes - include the -n option (not supported in threaded mode) threaded - if your operating system supports POSIX threads. Include the -t option to run ss5 in threaded mode. OPTIONS Separate multiple options with white space. -b [host:port]| host:port specifies the host and the port number on that host on which ss5 runs, instead of the default port. When you omit host, ss5 uses 0.0.0.0 as the host value. -n val Run multiple instances of ss5. -n option control the number of instances. -t Run ss5 in threaded mode, if your operating system supports POSIX threads. -u val Run ss5 with the specified user name. -v Print a message containing the current ss5 version. -s Use syslog instead of ss5.log log file. -c Run syntax check for config file -m Disable logging VARIABLES To set the variables in the configuration file, use the syntax: set variable [value] SS5_DNSORDER order domain name answers for implementing failover. SS5_STIMEOUT val val specifies the idle time in seconds, before closing a connec- tion (0 for infinite). SS5_VERBOSE enable verbose output to logfile. SS5_CONSOLE enable web console. SS5_SRV enable server manager command line tool. SS5_DEBUG enable debug output to logfile. SS5_SYSLOG_FACILITY set syslog facility SS5_SYSLOG_LEVEL set syslog level SS5_PAM_AUTH enable PAM authentication SS5_AUTHCACHEAGE enable user authentication caching and set cache age SS5_AUTHOCACHEAGE enable user authorization caching and set cache age SS5_LDAP_TIMEOUT set timeout for ldap query for profiling SS5_LDAP_BASE set BASE method for profiling (see PROFILING section in configu- ration file) SS5_LDAP_FILTER set FILTER method for profiling (see PROFILING section in con- figuration file) set SS5_RADIUS_AUTH enable RADIUS authentication SS5_RADIUS_INTERIM_INT set interval beetwen interim update packet SS5_RADIUS_INTERIM_TIMEOUT set interim response timeout SS5_STICKY_SESSION set session feature for balanced connections. SS5 mantain affin- ity session between source client and destination server SS5_STICKYAGE set expiration time for session affinity (in seconds) SS5_NETBIOS_DOMAIN enable netbios domain mapping with directory store, during au- thorization process SS5_PROCESSLIFE set number of requests ss5 process can serv before closing (only preforked mode) SS5_SUPAKEY set SUPA secret key (default SS5_SERVER_S_KEY). See http://csocks.altervista.org SS5_ICACHESERVER set internet address of ICP server SS5_GSS_PRINC set gss service principal ENVIRONMENT SS5_SOCKS_USER sets the effective user ID of the ss5 process SS5_SOCKS_PORT sets listen port SS5_SOCKS_ADDR sets listen address SS5_CONFIG_FILE sets absolute pathname of ss5 config file SS5_PASSWORD_FILE sets absolute pathname of ss5 password file SS5_PROPAGATE_KEY sets key value for configuration replica SS5_ROLE_SLAVE sets role to slave to accept replica from master (default value is ALONE) SS5_LOG_FILE sets absolute pathname of ss5 log file SS5_PROFILE_PATH sets absolute path of ss5 profile files SS5_LIB_PATH sets absolute path of ss5 modules REQUEST FOR COMMENTS RFC1928 SOCKS protocol Version 5 RFC1929 Username/Password Authentication for SOCKS V5 SEE ALSO ss5(1), ss5.conf(5), ss5.pam(5), ss5.passwd(5), ss5.ha(5), ss5srv(1), ss5_supa(5), ss5_gssapi(5) AUTHOR Matteo Ricchetti Send comments to matteo.ricchetti@libero.it 20 Jan 2009 ss5(1)
