davil Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Hi all, I work in Windows Admin and unfortunately we have a proxy server (with authentication) here for internet. I was wondering if there's a way that I can force applications that need web access to use this proxy - as you know most apps have configuration / settings that you can edit in order to use the proxy - but some don't and here's my problem. Does anybody know a way to create like a virtual router that routes all internet traffic from one or all applications over a proxy?? I hope I make sense.

operat0r_001 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 set IE proxy settings that will do for most apps ... they use the API or whatnot for IE other then that you will need to setup a transparent proxy google "squid transparent proxy" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H@L0_F00 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 http://proxyfirewall.org/? I've used SocksCap for SOCKS (SSH tunnel) proxies, but I'm guessing you're behind an HTTP proxy? The program isn't developed anymore, but you can find it floating around the web. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruk0ut Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 proxifier hooks the entire OS and lets you specifiy either SOCKS4/5 or HTTP proxies (with auth) this should be sufficient for requirements. http://www.proxifier.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manouche Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) I use FreeCap to great effect portable from my UFD. Once I establish my portable SSLvpn tunnel back to home with the Free Barracuda running on an NLSU2 with debian flashed on to it as per These instructions. I just fire up FreeCap with its sock settings to the standard localhost:1080 and add apps to the window. Most ports the app will use are redirected via FreeCap through 1080 through the tunnel then on my home server out through a proxy like cproxy. Apps that work are Filezilla(portable) and IM(portable clients. Skype(portable) dont work as it tries too many cleaver tricks of its own to tunnel out of LANs. This setup can tunnel out of all corporate & skool networks I have come across. -All Free Apps! and the NSLU2 cost me 35£ on ebay.

Thanks Bruk0ut! ... But it costs ~$40 :-( Anyone know how to do it manually on a Unix system? --> I use a MacBook Pro and tunnel all my data to/through a VPS.
