✨ desproxy-socksserver(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to desproxy-socksserver — it's a User Commands page, it's giving "small but mighty", and we're gonna get through it together 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

desproxy-socksserver — using desproxy with dynamic connections 🦋

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

  desproxy-socksserver proxy_host proxy_port local_port

like, three little args and you're off 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • None. — nope, zero, nada, not a single flag. the whole vibe is the arguments, periodt 💀

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so here's the situation. for every single app that needs to get un-proxyzed, you gotta start a desproxy program. and honestly? that's totally fine if you're running irc, ssh, or some other app that always connects to the same server. same target, same deal, no drama 🫶

but the moment you need to dynamically establish TCP connections? yeah no, that path is impossible to follow. it's not giving. it's not slaying. 😭

and that's literally why desproxy-socksserver exists — it's just a desproxy implementation of a Socks 5 Server. a Socks 5 Server is like a "TCP proxy": you request a TCP connection, and the Socks 5 Server does the work for you. iconic behaviour, truly 🔥

tiny little caveat tho bestie: the client applications need to actually have support for Socks 5 Server. no support = no connection. iykyk 🙈

🧚 ENVIRONMENT 🧚

None. no environment variables, no hidden lore, nothing to memorise ✨

🍓 FILES 🍓

None. it touches no files, it reads no files, it's unbothered 💜
