Question
How do you setup a SOCKS Proxy?
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how to setup a socks proxy?
I want to setup my own socks proxy just so I can see how they work but am not sure how to do this.
I am running Ubuntu 12.04.3 x64
And once the socks proxy is setup how can you add a username and password so it cant be public used without the password/username.
Thanks everyone!
