Recommend freeware proxy server

[Ol'Tunzafun]

I am looking for a relatively secure and simple proxy server for sharing a 56K dialup connection.
Normally I like AnalogX stuff but I notice the Office of Homeland Security is warning us off the AnalogX proxy server.

Try multiproxy - excellent for hiding your real ip address and very small footprint.

Analogx is being widely probed for on the internet so its kind of fallen out of favour.

FREE !!!!!

Linux Router Project

:t

only 1 disk of 3.5" 1.44 Mb

Multiproxy - free and only 300K.

TIA.

Ever heard of a search engine cat5?
:D

http://www.multiproxy.org/

And the new version 1.2 is only 167k
Remember to update your proxy list and to select
only anonymous proxies if you want to surf anonymously

:D I am familiar with Multiproxy. It is a nice anonymous Proxy Server Service :)

However it seems that the original poster is looking for a program to share a connection (I.e. He mentioned AnalogX Proxy which is an ICS replacement). :confused:

I thought that you know of a connection sharing program names Multiproxy.

The term Proxy is unfortunately used in a variety of different situations that might confuse some one not knowledgeable as you are. :D

Quite right cat5e. I've been looking at the likes of:
Proxy+3.0
VSOCKS lite
SOHOConnection 2.1
and Free Proxy

I kind of like the looks of Proxy+3.0

Indeed cat5 you are correct - I use ICS with multiproxy running on top.

Brain overload!
Proxy is used in a myriad of definitions - what you are looking for is an internet connection sharing app - a true proxy caches web ETC accesses as well.

You could try Spaghetti , Wingate , NTgate , Netproxy or the best Winroute pro.

I have a copy of Wingate that I got with a PNA (phoneline network) setup that I bought a while back and never used. I don't suppose it cares about the hardware difference. (My present house wiring is Cat3 and am instead using 3Com 3C905B-TX NICs).
If no one sees any problems with that, I think I'll give that a go.

Im looking for a better web proxy myself - Ive been running Microsofts Proxy server v4.0 on Win2k server but its pants so I went back to a win98se workstation with ICS and Multiproxy and its faster but doesnt do the cache thing - I like the look of ISA but havent the cash.

With Cat3 you will get 10mbps which is good enough for small usage - 12 workstations.

You can get some some personal ones like Naviscope (good all in one package) but I need one for server use!

I think I may go back to Winroutepro.
Anyone got any good ones?
Linux Router project doesnt have a web cache does it ALLG?
yOU GOT A URL FOR THE PROJECT - THINK I MAY TRY IT OUT SEEING AS YER ALWAYS BASHING ON ABOUT IT!!!
