NAME
filterproxy - a filtering web proxy
SYNOPSIS
filterproxy [-h-k-f<file>-p<port>-n]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the filterproxy command. This
manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because
the original program does not have a manual page.
filterproxy is a perl script that acts as a generic web proxy. It is
unique in that it allows "Modules" to be installed that can perform
arbitrary transofrmations on HTML (or any other mime-type). Currently
it filters ads, and compresses HTML content (for a 5-1 speedup on
modems!) Configuration is done with web forms.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-h Show summary of options.
-f <file>
Specify an alternate config file (default is
/etc/filterproxy/filterproxy.conf)
-p <port>
Specify the port to which FilterProxy will bind (default is
8888)
-n Do not daemonize: stay connected to the terminal from which it
was started and print debugging messages.
