<p>
	<ul>
		<li><A NAME="MSVC">How to compile 3proxy with Visual C++</A>
<p>
Extract source code files from 3proxy.tgz (with WinZip or another utility).
Use nmake /f Makefile.msvc command
</p>
		<li><A NAME="INTL">How to compile 3proxy with Intel C Compiler under Windows</A>
<p>
See <A HREF="#MSVC">How to compile 3proxy with Visual C++</A>
Use Makefile.intl instead of Makefile.msvc
</p>
		<li><A NAME="GCCWIN">How to compile 3proxy with GCC under Windows</A></li>
<p>
Extract source files from 3proxy.tgz (for example with tar -xzf 3proxy.tgz command if you have tar installed)
Use make -f Makefile.win command. 
If you want to use POSIX emulation Cygwin library (normally you shouldn't) - use make -f Makefile.unix instead.
Windows specific things (like installing as service) will not be available if compiled with Cygwin emulation.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="GCCUNIX">How to compile 3proxy with GCC under Unix/Linux</A></li>
<p>
Use
<pre>
make -f Makefile.Linux
</pre>
for Linux or Cygwin, Makefile.Solaris* (depending on compiler version) for Solaris
and Makefile.unix for different Unix-like OS. On BSD derivered systems make
sure to use GNU make, sometimes it's called gmake instead of make.
<br>Compilation is tested under FreeBSD/i386, NetBSD/i386, OpenBSD/i386, 
RH Linux/Alpha, Debian/i386, Gentoo/i386, Gentoo/PPC, Solaris/x86 but you
shouldn't have problems under different Solaris, BSD or linux compatible systems.
For different systems you may be required to patch Makefile or even source codes.
If you want to use ODBC support, make sure to install ODBC for unix, remove -DNOODBC
option from makefile compiler options and add ODBC library to linker variable.

<p>
	<ul>
		<li><A NAME="INSTNT">How to install/remove 3proxy under Windows NT/2000/XP</A>
<p>
Unpack 3proxy.zip to any directory, for example
c:\Program Files\3proxy. If needed, create directory for storing log files,
ODBC sources, etc. Create 3proxy.cfg in the 3proxy installation directory (See <A HREF="#SERVER">Server configuration</A>).
If you use 3proxy before 0.6 Add
<pre>
service
</pre>
string into 3proxy.cfg. Now, start command prompt (cmd.exe).
Change directory to 3proxy installation and run 3proxy.exe --install:
<pre>
D:\>C:
C:\>cd C:\Program Files\3proxy
C:\Program Files\3proxy>3proxy.exe --install
</pre>
Now, you should have 3proxy service installed and running. If service is not
started, remove "service" string from 3proxy.cfg, run 3proxy.exe manually
and correct all errors.
</p><p>
To remove 3proxy run 3proxy --remove:
<pre>
D:\>C:
C:\>cd C:\Program Files\3proxy
C:\Program Files\3proxy>net stop 3proxy
C:\Program Files\3proxy>3proxy.exe --remove
</pre>
Now you can simply remove 3proxy installation directory.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="INST95">How to install/remove 3proxy under Windows 95/98/ME</A>
<p>
Unpack 3proxy.zip to any directory, for example
c:\Program Files\3proxy. If needed, create directory for storing log files,
ODBC sources, etc. Create 3proxy.cfg in the 3proxy installation directory (See <A HREF="#SERVER">Server configuration</A>).
Remove string
<pre>
service
</pre>
from 3proxy.cfg and add
<pre>
daemon
</pre>
if you want 3proxy to run in background.
Create shortcut for 3proxy.exe and place it in autostart or add
to registry with regedit.exe:
<br>HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run</br>
Type: String
<br>3proxy = "c:\Program Files\3proxy.exe" "C:\Program Files\3proxy.cfg"<br>
You must use quotes if path contains space. If neccessary, restart Windows.
If service is not started, check log. Remove "daemon" command from 3proxy.cfg,
start 3proxy.exe manually and correct all errors.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="INSTUNIX">How to install/remove 3proxy under Unix/Linux</A>
<p>
Complie 3proxy (see <A HREF="#COMPILE">Compilation</A>). Copy
executables to any appropriate location (for example /usr/local/3proxy/sbin
for servers and /usr/local/3proxy/bin for utilities).
Create /usr/local/etc/3proxy.cfg. 
(see <A HREF="#SERVER">Server configuration</A>).
You can change default configuration file location by specifing configuration file
in 3proxy command line.
Add 3proxy to system startup scripts.
</p>
	</ul>
<hr>
	<li><A NAME="SERVER">Server configuration</A>
<p>
	<ul>
  <li><a name="NOTHING">How to make 3proxy start</a>
<p>Valid configuration file is required.

    <li><a name="IMITS">How to make limitation (access, bandwidth, traffic, connections) work</a>
<p> Most probable reasons for non-working limitations: 'auth none' or no auth is used. For any ACL based feature one of 'iponly', 'nbname' or 'strong' auths required. Sequence of commands may be invalid. Commands are executed one-by-one and 'proxy', 'tcppm', 'socks' or another service commands must follow valid configuration. Invalid sequence of ACLs. First matching ACL is used (except of internal redirections, see below). If ACL contains at least one records last record is assumed to be 'deny *'.

    <li><a name="SERVICE">How to make 3proxy to run as a service</a>
<p>Possible reasons for 3proxy starts manually but fails to start as a service:
<ul>
<li>there are relative paths in configuration file for included files,
log files, etc. Always use absolute paths. For example
$"c:\3proxy\networks.local" instead of  $networks.local. For debugging remove
'service' and 'daemon', log to stdout an try to execute 3proxy from command
line from some different directory (for example from disk root).
<li>SYSTEM account doesn't have access to executable file, configuration files,
log files, etc.
<li>configuration files is not located in default path (3proxy.cfg in same
location with 3proxy.exe). For alternative configuration file location use
<pre>
3proxy --install full_path_to_configuration_file
</pre>
<li>user has no rights to install or start service
<li>service is already installed and/or started

</ul>

<p><A NAME="INTEXT">How to understant internal and external</A>
<p>
Both internal and external IPs are IPs of the host running 3proxy itself.
This configuration option is usefull in situation 3proxy is running on the
border host with 2 (or more) connections: e.g. LAN and WAN with different IPs
<pre>
     LAN connection +-------------+ Internet connection
LAN <-------------->| 3proxy host |<-------------------> INTERNET
                   ^+-------------+^
	           |               |
              Internal IP       External IP
</pre>
If 3proxy is used on the host with single connection, both internal and
external are usually same IP.
<br>Internal should exist and be UP on the moment 3proxy is started and
should never be disconnected/DOWN. If this interface is periodically
disconnected (e.g. direct link between 2 hosts), do not specify internal
address or use 0.0.0.0 instead. In this case, if you have 2 or more
interfaces you must use firewall (preferably) or 3proxy ACLs to avoid open
proxy situation. 
<br>
External IP (if specified) must exist in the momet 3proxy
serves client request. If external interface is no specified (or 0.0.0.0),
system select external IP. It may be possible to access resources of internal
network, to prevent this use ACLs. In addition, SOCKSv5 will not support BIND
operation, required for incoming connections (this operation is quite rarely
implemented in SOCKSv5 clients and usually is not required). In case of
dynamic address, do not specify external or use external 0.0.0.0 or, if
external address is required, create a script to determine current external
IP and save it to file, and use external "$path_to_file" with "monitor" command
to automatically reload configuration on address change.

    <li><a name="ODBC">How to make ODBC logging work?</a>
<p>
Check you use system DSN. 
Check SQL request is valid. 
The best way to check is to make file or stdout logging, get SQL request from log file or console and execute this request manually.
Under Unix, you may also want to adjust 'stacksize' parameter.

    <li><a name="IPV6">How to make IPv6 work</a>
<p> Proxy can not access destination directly over IPv6 if client requests IPv4 address.
To access IPv6 destination, either IPv6 address or hostname  must be used in request.
Best solution is to enable option to resolve hostnames via proxy on client side.

    <li><a name="CRASH">How to fix 3proxy crashes</a>
<p> default stacksize may be insufficient, if some non-default plugins
  are used (e.g. PAM and ODBC on Linux) or if compiled on some platforms with
  invalid system defined values (few versionds of FreeBSD on amd64).
  Problem can be resolved with 'stacksize' command or '-S' option starting 3proxy 0.8.4.


		<li><A NAME="SAMPLE">Where to find configuration example</A>
<p>
Server configuration example 3proxy.cfg.sample is in any 3proxy distribution.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="LOGGING">How to set up logging</A>
<p>
3proxy can log to stdout, file, ODBC datasource and
syslog (Unix/Linux/Cygwin only). For using ODBC under Unix/Linux you must
compile 3proxy with Unix ODBC libraries, see <A HREF="#COMPILE">Compilation</A>.
You can control logging from 3proxy.cfg for all services or you can control
logging of individual service, for example 
/usr/local/sbin/socks -l/var/log/socks.log starts SOCKS proxy with logging to file.
For universal proxy (3proxy) log file rotation and archiving is supported.
Log type is defined with "log" configuration file command or with
-l switch on individual service invokation. log or -l is stdout logging.
<pre>
	log filename
</pre>
and
<pre>
	-lfilename
</pre>
specify filename for logging
<pre>
	log @ident
</pre>
and
<pre>
	-l@ident
</pre>
specify ident for syslog logging. If filename within "log" command contains
'%' characters, it's processes as format specificator (see "logformat"). E.g.
log c:\3proxy\logs\%y%m%d.log D creates file like c:\3proxy\logs\060729.log,
date is generated based on local time.
<pre>
	log &connstring
</pre>

specifies ODBC connection string, connstring is in format
datasource,username,password (2 last are optional of
datasource does not require or already has authentication information). 
Also, you must specify logformat to build SQL query, to insert recod into
log, see <A HREF="#LOGFORMAT">How to setup logging format</A>
</p>
<p>
Rotation and archiving may be set up with log, rotate � archiver commands
<pre>
	log filename LOGTYPE
</pre>
sets rotation type. LOGTYPE may be:
<ul>
	<li>M, monthely
	<li>W, weekly
	<li>D, daily
	<li>H, hourly
	<li>C, minutely
</ul>
<pre>
	rotate NUMBER
</pre>
	specifies number of files in rotation (that is how many files to keep).
<pre>
	archiver EXT COMMAND PARAMETERS
</pre>
	Sets external archiver. EXT is extention of archived files
	(for example zip, gz, Z, rar etc) COMMAND and PARAMETERS are command
	to execute and command line PARAMETERS. Originale file is not deleted by
	3proxy, this work is left for archiver.
	You can pass original filename to archiver with %F macro and archive filename with %A.
	Examples are located in
	3proxy.cfg.sample
</p>
		<li><A NAME="LOGFORMAT">How to setup logging format</A>
<p>
	Since 0.3 version log format may be set with "logformat" command.
	First symbol of log format specifies format of date and time and
	should be L (LOCAL) or G (GMT - Grinwitch Meridian Time). Format
	string may contains some macro substitutions:
	<ul>
<li>	 %y - Year (2 digits)
<li>	 %Y - Year (4 digits)
<li>	 %m - Month (2 digits)
<li>	 %o - mOnth (3 letter abbriviation)
<li>	 %d - Day (2 digits)
<li>	 %H - Hour (2 digits)
<li>	 %M - Minute (2 digits)
<li>	 %S - Second (2 digits)
<li>	 %t - Timestamp (seconds since January, 1 1970 00:00:00 GMT)
<li>	 %. - Milliseconds
<li>	 %z - Timezone in mail format (from GMT, '+' east, '-' west HHMM), For example Moscow winter time is +0300.
<li>	 %U - Username ('-' if unknown).
<li>	 %N - Service name (PROXY, SOCKS, POP3P, etc)
<li>	 %p - Service port
<li>	 %E - Error code (see. <A HREF="#ERRORS">Log error codes reference</A>)
<li>	 %C - client IP
<li>	 %c - client port
<li>	 %R - target IP
<li>	 %r - target port
<li>	 %e - external IP address used to establish connection
<li>	 %Q - requested IP
<li>	 %q - requested port
<li>	 %I - bytes received from target
<li>	 %O - bytes sent to target
<li>	 %n - host name from request
<li>	 %h - hops  before target (if redirection or chaning is used).
	 see <A HREF="#CHAIN">How to use chains and parent proxies</A>)
<li>	 %T - service specific text (for example URL requested). %X-YT
	 where X and Y are positive numbers, only displays fields
 	 (space delimited) X to Y of the text. An example is %1-2T.
	</ul>
	Example:
<pre>
logformat "L%t.%. %N.%p %E %U %C:%c %R:%r %O %I %h %T"
</pre>
	generates something like
<p><font face="courier">
1042454727.0296 SOCK4.1080 000 3APA3A 127.0.0.1:4739 195.122.226.28:4739 505 18735 1 GET http://3proxy.org/ HTTP/1.1
</font>
<br>(no line breaks)
</p>
<p>
	If ODBC used, logformat should specify SQL command,
	to insert record into log, for example
<p><pre>
logformat "-\'+_GINSERT INTO proxystat  VALUES (%t, '%c', '%U', %I)"</pre>
<br>(no line breaks)
<br>-\'+_ instructs to replace characters \ and ' with _
</p>
		<li><A NAME="LOGANALIZERS">How to use log analizers with 3proxy</A>
<p>
Just make format of 3proxy logs compatible with format supported by your
favourite log analizer. Examples of compatible logformats are:
<br>
For Squid access.log:
<p><font face="courier">
&quot;- +_G%t.%. %D %C TCP_MISS/200 %I %1-1T %2-2T %U DIRECT/%R application/unknown&quot;
</p>
or, more compatible format without %D
<pre>
&quot;- +_G%t.%.      1 %C TCP_MISS/200 %I %1-1T %2-2T %U
 DIRECT/%R application/unknown&quot;
</pre>

</p>
		<li><A NAME="LAUNCH">How to start any of proxy services (HTTP, SOCKS etc)</A>
<p>
3proxy is distributed in 2 variants: as a set of standalone modules (proxy,
socks, pop3p, tcppm, udppm) and as universal proxy server. These services are
absolutely independant, and if you use 3proxy you needn't any of standalone
modules.
<br>Standalone modules are only configurable via command line interface while
3proxy uses configuration file. Many functions, such as ODBC logging, log
rotation, access control, etc are only available in 3proxy, not in standalone
proxies.
Standalone module may be started from command line, for example:
<pre>
$/sbin/socks -l/var/log/socks.log -i127.0.0.1
</pre>
Starts SOCKS server binded to localhost ip, port 1080 with logging to
/var/log/socks.log.
You can get help for any standalone service with -? command line option.
</p><p>
If 3proxy is used you should start all services in 3proxy.cfg file. 3proxy.cfg
is executed by 3proxy as a batch file. Example of 3proxy.cfg and command syntaxys
can be found in
3proxy.cfg.sample.
<pre>
log /var/log/3proxy.log D
rotate 30
internal 127.0.0.1
external 192.168.1.1
proxy
socks -p3129
pop3p 
</pre>
Starts 3 services: HTTP PROXY, SOCKS and POP3 PROXY. Each listens localhost
interface with default port (3128 for HTTP, 1080 for SOCKS and 110 for POP3P)
except socks started with port 3129.
All logs are in file /var/log/3proxy.log (with daily date modification and
rotation). 30 last files are stored.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="BIND">How to bind service to specific interface and port?</A>
<p>
-i options specifies internal interface, -p - listening port. No space are
allowed. To bind 'proxy' service to port 8080 on interfaces 192.168.1.1
and 192.168.2.1 use
<pre>
proxy -p8080 -i192.168.1.1
proxy -p8080 -i192.168.2.1
</pre>
</p>
  <li><a name="NAMES">How to resolve names through a parent proxy</a></li>
  <p>
  <i>A:</i> Use one of proxy, connect+, socks4+ or socks5+ as a parent type. 3proxy
  itself still performs a name resolution, it's required e.g. to ACLs matching.
  So, if no name resolution must be performed by 3proxy itself add a command
  <pre>
  fakeresolve</pre>
  this command resolves any name to 127.0.0.2 address.
  </p>
  <li><a name="ISFTP"><i>How to setup FTP proxy</i></a></li>
  <p>
  There is FTP over HTTP (what is called FTP proxy in browsers) and FTP over FTP �ப�
  (what is called FTP proxy in file managers and FTP clients). For browsers, there is no need to start additional
  proxy service, 'proxy' supports FTP over HTTP, configure 'proxy' port as an FTP proxy. For ftp clients and file
  managers use ftppr. FTP proxy supports both active and passive mode with client, but always use passive mode with FTP servers.
  </p>
		<li><A NAME="AUTH">How to limit service access</A>
<p>
First, always specify internal interface to accept incoming connection with
'internal' configuration command or '-i' service command. (See
<A HREF="#LAUNCH">How to start any of proxy services (HTTP, SOCKS etc)</A>). If
no internal interface is specified your proxy will act as open one.
<p>It's also important to specify external interface to prevent access to
internal network with 'external' or -e.
<p>3proxy with configuration files allows to use authentication and
authorization for user's access. Authentication is possible by
username/password or user's NetBIOS name. Authentication type is specified by
'auth' command.  
<pre>
auth none
</pre>
Disables both authentication and authorization. You can not use ACLs.
<pre>
auth iponly
</pre>
Specifies no authentication, ACLs authorization is used.
<pre>
auth nbname
</pre>
Authentication by NetBIOS name + ACLs. NetBIOS name of 'messenger' service
is obrained before ACL validation. If no name is obtained it's assumed to be
empty. Messenger is started by default in Windows NT/2000/XP. For Win9x
WinPopUP need to be launched. This type of authentication may be spoofed
by privileged local user.
<pre>
auth strong
</pre>
Authentication by username/password. If user is not registered his
access is denied regardless of ACLs.
<p>
Different services can have different authentication levels.
<pre>
auth none
pop3p
auth iponly
proxy
auth strong
socks
</pre>

It's possible to authorize access by client IP address, IP address or requested resource,
target port, time, etc after authentication.
(See <A HREF="#ACL">How to limit resource access</A>).
</p><p>Since 0.6 version double authentication is possible, e.g.
<pre>
auth iponly strong
allow * * 192.168.0.0/16
allow user1,user2
proxy
</pre>
strong authentication will only be used if ACL requires username to deside if
access must be granted. That is, in example, strong username authentication
is not required to access 192.168.0.0/16
</p><p>0.6 version introduces authentication (username) caching to increase
productivity. It's recommended to use authentication caching with resource
or time consuming authentication types, such as nbname or external plugins
(WindowsAuthentication).
Caching can be set with 'authcache' command with 2 parameters: caching type
and caching time (in seconds). Caching type defines the type of cached access:
'ip' - after successful authentication all connections during caching time
from same IP are assigned to the same user, username is not requested.
"ip,user" - username is requested and all connections from the same IP are
assigned to the same user without actual authentication. "user" - same as above,
but IP is not checked. "user,password" - username and password are checked
against cached ones. For authentication special authentication type 'cache'
must be used.
 Example:
<pre>
authcache ip 60
auth cache strong windows
proxy -n
</pre>
</p>
Please note, that caching affects security. Never use caching for access to
critical resources, such as web administration.
  <p>authcache can be used to bind user's sessions to ip with 'limit' option, with
  <pre>
  autchcache ip,user,pass,limit 120
  auth cache strong</pre>
  user will not be able to use more than a single IP during cache time (120 sec).

		<li><A NAME="USERS">How to create user list</A>
<p>
Userslist is created with 'users' command.
<pre>
users USERDESC ...
</pre>
With a single command it's possible to define few users, or you
can use few 'users' commands. USERDESC is user description. Description
consists of three semicolon delimited parts - login, password type and
<pre>
users admin:CL:bigsecret test:CL:password test1:CL:password1
users "test2:CR:$1$lFDGlder$pLRb4cU2D7GAT58YQvY49."
users test3:NT:BD7DFBF29A93F93C63CB84790DA00E63
</pre>
Please note the usage of quotation sign: it's required to comment out $ sign
overwise used as a file inclusion macro.
Next password types are available:
<ul>
	<li>No password type: use system authentication.
	<li>CL - cleartext password
	<li>CR - crypt password, only MD5 crypt passwords are supported
	<li>NT - NT-hashed (MD4) passwords in hex, as used in pwdump or SAMBA
</ul>
NT and crypt passwords can be used to import accounts from Windows/SAMBA or
Unix. For Windows you can use pwdump family of utilities.
It's convenient to store accounts apart and include account file with $ macro.
Because for included files newlines are treated as a space, it's possible to
use atandard passwd file format:
<pre>
users $/etc/.3proxypasswd
</pre>
or
<pre>
users $"c:\Program Files\3proxy\passwords"
</pre>
It's possible to create NT and crypt passwords with mycrypt utility included
in distribution.
<br>Userlist is system-wide. To manage user access to specific service use ACLs.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="ACL">How to limit user access to resources</A>
<p>
Commands allow, deny and flush are used to manage ACLs:
<p><font face="courier">
allow &lt;userlist&gt; &lt;sourcelist&gt; &lt;targetlist&gt; &lt;targetportlist&gt; &lt;commandlist&gt; &lt;weekdaylist&gt; &lt;timeperiodlist&gt;
<br>deny &lt;userlist&gt; &lt;sourcelist&gt; &lt;targetlist&gt;  &lt;weekdaylist&gt; &lt;timeperiodlist&gt;
<br>flush
</font>
</p>
'flush' command is used to finish with existing ACL and to start new one.
It's required to have different ACLs for different services.
'allow' is used to allow connection and 'deny' to deny connection. 'allow'
command can be extended by 'parent' command to manage redirections (see <A href="#REDIR">How to manage redirections</A>)). If ACL
is empty it allow everything. If ACL is not empty, first matching ACL entry
is searched for user request and ACL action (allow or deny) performed. If
no matching record found, connection is denied and user will be asked to
re-authenticate (requested for username/password). To prevent this request
add 'deny *' to the end of list.
<ul>
	<li>&lt;userlist&gt; - comma delimited list of users
	<li>&lt;sourcelist&gt; - comma delimited list of source (client) networks. 
		Networks can be defined as single IP address or in CIDR form
		xxx.yyy.zzz.mmm/l, where l - is the length of network mask
		(a number of non-zero bits). 192.168.1.0/24
		means network with 255.255.255.0 mask.
	<li>&lt;targetlist&gt; - comma delimited list of target (server) networks.
		In 3proxy 0.6 and above it's allowed to use hostnames with wildmasks
		in targetlist. Wildmask may only present in the begginning or at the
		end of the hostname, e.g. 
		192.168.0.0/16,www.example.com,*wrongsite.com,*wrongcontent*.
	<li>&lt;targetportlist&gt; - comma delimited list of ports. I
		It's possible to define port ranges with -, e.g. 80,1024-65535

		<li><A NAME="REDIR">How to manage redirections</A>
<p>
Redirections are usefull to e.g. forward requests from specific clients
to different servers or proxy server. Additionally, redirections are usefull
to convert proxy interface from ont format to another, e.g. requests from
SOCKS proxy can be redirected to parent HTTP proxy, or SOCKSv5 client can be
redirected to SOCKSv4 proxy.
<br>Because 3proxy understand "transparent" web request, it can be used as an
intermediate software between HTTP proxy and NAT server for transparent HTTP
forwarding, because it can convert "Web server" request issued by client to
"proxy request" required by proxy server. A simplest redirection is:
<pre>
auth iponly
allow *
parent 1000 http 192.168.1.1 3128
proxy
</pre>
All trafiic of HTTP proxy is redirected to parent proxy 192.168.1.1 port 3128.
<br>If port number is '0', IP address from 'parent' is used as external address
for this connection (that is like -eIP, but only for connections matching
'allow').
<br>Special case of redirection are local redirections. In this case both IP is
0.0.0.0 and port is 0. It's only usseful with SOCKS service. In this case no
new connection is established, but request is parsed by corresponding local
service. E.g.:
<pre>
auth iponly
allow * * * 80
parent 1000 http 0.0.0.0 0
allow * * * 21
parent 1000 ftp 0.0.0.0 0
allow * * * 110
parent 1000 pop3 0.0.0.0 0
socks
</pre>
In this case all SOCKS traffic with destination port 80 is forwarded to local
'proxy' service, destination port 21 to 'ftppr' and 110 to 'pop3pr'. There is
no need to run these services expicitly. Local redirections are usefull if
you want to see and control via ACLs protocol specific parameters, e.g.
filenames requests thorugh FTP while clients are using SOCKS.
</p>
    <li><a name="SOCKSREDIR">��� �ࠢ���� ������묨 ��७��ࠢ����ﬨ</a>
<p>
<p><i>Q: What is it for?</i></p>
A: To have control based on request and to have URLs and another protocol specific parameters to be logged.

<p><i>Q: What are restrictions?</i></p>
A: It's hard to redirect services for non-default ports; Internet Explorer supports only SOCKSv4 with no password authentication (Internet Explorer sends username, but not password), for SOCKSv5 only cleartext password authentication is supported.

<p><i>Q: What are advantages?</i></p>
A: You need only to setup SOCKS proxy in browser settings. You can use socksifier, i.e. FreeCAP or SocksCAP with application which is not proxy aware.

<p><i>Q: How to setup?</i></p>
A: You should specify parent proxy with IP of 0.0.0.0 and port 0. Examples:
<pre>
auth iponly
allow * * * 80,8080-8088
parent 1000 http 0.0.0.0 0
allow * * * 80,8080-8088
#redirect ports 80 and 8080-8088 to local HTTP proxy
#Second allow is required, because ACLs are checked
#twice: first time by socks and second by http proxy.

allow * * * 21,2121
parent 1000 ftp 0.0.0.0 0
allow * * * 21,2121
#redirect ports 21 and 2121 to local 
#ftp proxy


allow *
#allow rest of connections directly

socks
#now let socks server to start
</pre>

<p><i>Q: How it affects different ACL rules</i></p>
A: After local redirections rules are applied again to protocol-level request. Redirection rule itself is skipped. It makes it possible to redirect request again on the external proxy depending on request itself.
<pre>
allow * * * 80,8080-8088
parent 1000 http 0.0.0.0 0
#redirect http traffic to internal proxy

allow * * $c:\3proxy\local.nets 80,8080-8088
#allow direct access to local.nets networks
allow * * * 80,8080-8088
parent 1000 http proxy.3proxy.org 3128
#use parent caching proxy for rest of the networks

allow *
#allow direct connections for rest of socks
#requests
</pre>

		<li><A NAME="ROUNDROBIN">How to balance traffic between few external channgels?</A>
<p>
Proxy itself doesn't manage network level routing. The only way to control
outgoing channel is to select external interface. It's possible to make
external interface (what is usually selected with 'external' command or
'-e' option) random by using local redirection with external port 0.
<pre>
auth iponly
allow *
parent 500 http 10.1.1.101 0
parent 500 http 10.2.1.102 0
</pre>
Now external interface is randomly selected with 0.5 probability between
10.1.1.101 and 10.2.1.102. To work as expected, different default routes
must between 2 interfaces.
used
<p>
If both interface addresses are in same network, e.g. 10.1.1.101 and 10.1.1.102
and you want to select random gateway between 10.1.1.1 and 10.1.1.2, you must
control it by using routing table, in case there is no default gateway route
for Windows:
<pre>
 route add -p 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.101
 route add -p 10.1.1.2 10.1.1.102
 route add -p 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1
 route add -p 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.2
</pre>
If you have no second address yet, just add it. Under Linux/Unix it's better
to use source routing.
</p>
		<li><A NAME="CHAIN">How to manage proxy chains</A>
<p>
parent command may also be used to build a proxy chains. In this case
few 'parent' commands are used for single 'allow' rule with different
weights (first argument of parent command). Chain may contain any number
of proxy servers, but it should be noted that every hope significantly
reduces productivity. It's possible to mix different types of proxy within
single chain: HTTPS (HTTP connect), SOCKS4, SOCKS5. Weight different from
1000 is used to build random chains. if weight W is below 1000, this proxy
will be used as a next chain hop with probability of W/1000. That is, if
the weight is 250 probability this proxy will be used for the next hope is
25%. 'parent' records with common weight of 1000 establish a group, one of
these record will be used for the hop with probability according to weight.
Warning: each group must have a weight even of 1000. As follows, common
weight of all 'parent' records must also be even of 1000. If common weight
of 'parent' records in te chain is 3000, chain has 3 hops and must be formed
of 3 groups. Example:
<pre>
allow *
parent 500 socks5 192.168.1.1 1080
parent 500 connect 192.168.10.1 3128
</pre>
In this case we have 1 parent proxy (1 hop) which is randomely choosen between
2 hosts: 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.10.1. 2 records form a single group.
<pre>
allow * * * 80
parent 1000 socks5 192.168.10.1 1080
parent 1000 connect 192.168.20.1 3128
parent 300 socks4 192.168.30.1 1080
parent 700 socks5 192.168.40.1 1080
</pre>
In this case we have 3 groups (3 hops in the chain). First hop is 192.168.10.1,
second hop is 192.168.20.1 and 3rd one is either 192.168.30.1 with probability
of 30% or 192.168.40.1 with probability of 70%.
</p>

		<li><A NAME="BANDLIM">How to limit bandwidth</A>
<p>
3proxy supports bandwidth filters. To manage filters bandlimin/bandlimout and
nobandlimin/nobandlimout. 'in' means incoming and 'out' - outgoing traffic.
<p><font face="courier">
bandlimin &lt;bitrate&gt; &lt;userlist&gt; &lt;sourcelist&gt; &lt;targetlist&gt; &lt;targetportlist&gt; &lt;commandlist&gt;
<br>nobandlimin &lt;userlist&gt; &lt;sourcelist&gt; &lt;targetlist&gt; &lt;targetportlist&gt; &lt;commandlist&gt;
</font>
</p>
Commands are applied to all services. Imagine bandwidth filters as a series of
pipes.  Bitrate is a pipe's width and ACLs controls the flow thorugh this pipe.
<pre>
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.16
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.17
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.18
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.19
</pre>
Create 4 separete pipes for 4 client with emulation of modem connection.
<pre>
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.16/30
</pre>
Create single pipe for all 4 clients. That is 4 clients share modem connection.
In this example:
<pre>
  nobandlimin * * * 110
  bandlimin 57600 * 192.168.10.16/32
</pre>
mail traffic from POP3 servers bypasses the pipe and has no bandwidth
limitation.

<p>
You can set traffic limit per day (D), week (W), month (M), year (Y) or
absolute ('N'), as specified by 'type' argument of counterin command.
Traffic information is stored in binary file specified by 'filename' argument.
countersutil utility can be used to manage this file.
reportpath specifies location of text reports, type parameter of 'counter'
command controls how often text reports are created. amount is amount of
allowed traffic in Megabytes (MB). nocountin allows you to set exclusions.
</p>
  <li><a name="TRAF"><i>How to fix incorrect traffic accounting</i></a>

  <p>3proxy accounts protocol level traffic. Provider counts channel or IP-level traffic with network and transport headers. In additions, 3proxy doesn't counts DNS resolutions, pings, floods, scans, etc. It makes approx. 10% of difference. That's why you should have 15% reserve if you use 3proxy to limit your traffic. If difference with your provider is significantly above 10% you should look for traffic avoiding proxy server, for example connections through NAT, traffic originated from the host with proxy installed, traffic from server applications, etc.
  <li><a name="NSCACHING"><i>How to configure name resolution and DNS caching</i></a>
  <p>
  For name resolution and caching use commands nserver, nscache / nscache6 and nsrecord.
  <pre>
  nserver 192.168.1.2
  nserver 192.168.1.3:5353/tcp</pre>
  sets DNS resolvers. 192.168.1.3 will be used via TCP/5353 (instead of default UDP/53)
  only if 192.168.1.2 fails. Up to 5 nservers may be specified.
  If no nserver is configured, default system name resolution functions are used.
  <pre>
  nscache 65535
  nscache6 65535</pre>
  sets name cache size for IPv4 and IPv6. Name cache must be large enouth, if presents.
  name cache is only used if nserver is configured.
  <pre>
  nsrecord server.mycompany.example.com 192.168.1.1
  nsrecord www.porno.com 127.0.0.2
  ...
  deny * * 127.0.0.2</pre>
  adds static nsrecords. Also, static nsrecords are used for dnspr, unless -s option is specified.
  Since 0.8 version, parent proxy may be configured for dnspr.
</p>
  <li><a name="IPV6"><i>How to use IPv6</i></a>
  <p>
  IPv6 is supported since 0.8. Please note, some proxy protolos, e.g. SOCKSv4,
  do not  support IPv6. SOCKSv5 supports IPv6 with special request type (must be
  implemented by client).
  <br>
  3proxy supports proxying from IPv4 and IPv6 networks to IPv4,
  IPv6 and mixed networks. IPv6 address may be used in
  internal, external, parent commands, ACLs, -i and -e options,etc.
  external command and -e options may be given twice for each service - once with IPv4
  and once with IPv6 address. internal can be given only once, to bind to all IPv4 and
  IPv6 addresses use [0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0] or [::]. 
  <br>
  Any service may be configured with -4, -46, -64, -6 options to specify decied
  priority for name to IPv4/IPv6 address resolution (IPv4 only, IPv4 priority,
  IPv6 priority, IPv6 only).
