# 3APA3A 3proxy tiny proxy server (c) 2002-2025 by Vladimir '3APA3A' Dubrovin <3proxy@3proxy.org> Branches: Master (stable) branch - 3proxy 0.9 Devel branch - 3proxy 10 (don't use it) * Download	Binaries and sources for released (master) versions (Windows, Linux): https://github.com/z3APA3A/3proxy/releases	Docker images: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/3proxy/3proxy	Archive of old versions: https://github.com/z3APA3A/3proxy-archive * Documentation	Documentation (man pages and HTML) available with download, on https://3proxy.org/	and in github wiki https://github.com/3proxy/3proxy/wiki * Windows installation 3proxy --install	installs and starts proxy as Windows service	(config file should be located in the same directory) 3proxy --remove	removes the service (should be stopped before via	'net stop 3proxy'). * To build in Linux install git and build-essential packages, use git clone https://github.com/z3apa3a/3proxy cd 3proxy ln -s Makefile.Linux Makefile make sudo make install Default configuration (for Linux/Unix): 3proxy uses 2 configuration files: /etc/3proxy/3proxy.cfg (before-chroot). This configuration file is executed before chroot and should not be modified. /usr/local/3proxy/conf/3proxy.cfg symlinked from /etc/3proxy/conf/3proxy.cfg (after-chroot) is a main configuration file. Modify this file, if required. All paths in /usr/local/3proxy/conf/3proxy.cfg are relative to chroot directory (/usr/local/3proxy). For future versions it's planned to move 3proxy chroot direcory to /var. Log files are created in /usr/local/3proxy/logs symlinked from /var/log/3proxy. By default, socks is started on 0.0.0.0:1080 and proxy on 0.0.0.0:3128 with basic auth, no users are added by default. use /etc/3proxy/conf/add3proxyuser.sh script to add users. usage: /etc/3proxy/conf/add3proxyuser.sh username password [day_limit] [bandwidth] day_limit - traffic limit in MB per day bandwidth - bandwith in bits per second 1048576 = 1Mbps or modify /etc/3proxy/conf/ files directly. * For MacOS X / FreeBSD / *BSD git clone https://github.com/z3apa3a/3proxy cd 3proxy ln -s Makefile.FreeBSD Makefile make (binaries are in bin/ directory) Features: 1.

Proxy chaining and network connections	+ Can be used as a bridge between client and different proxy type (e.g. convert incoming HTTP proxy request from client to SOCKSv5 request to parent server).	+ Connect back proxy support to bypass firewalls	+ Parent proxy support for any type of incoming connection	+ Username/password authentication for parent proxy(s).	+ HTTPS/SOCKS4/SOCKS5 and ip/port redirection parent support	+ Random parent selection	+ Chain building (multihop proxing)	+ Load balancing between few network connections by choosing network interface 3.

Access control	+ ACL-driven Access control by username, source IP,	destination IP/hostname, destination port and destination action	(POST, PUT, GET, etc), weekday and daytime.	+ ACL-driven (user/source/destination/protocol/weekday/daytime or	combined) bandwith limitation for incoming and (!)outgoing trafic.	+ ACL-driven traffic limitation per day, week or month for incoming and	outgoing traffic	+ Connection limitation and ratelimting	+ User authentication by username / password	+ RADIUS Authentication and Authorization	+ User authentication by DNS hostname	+ Authentication cache with possibility to limit user to single IP address	+ Access control by username/password for SOCKSv5 and HTTP/HTTPS/FTP	+ Cleartext or encrypted (crypt/MD5 or NT) passwords.	+ Connection redirection	+ Access control by requested action (CONNECT/BIND, HTTP GET/POST/PUT/HEAD/OTHER).	+ All access control entries now support weekday and time limitations	+ Hostnames and * templates are supported instead of IP address 5. Extensions	+ Regular expression filtering (with PCRE) via PCREPlugin	+ Authentication with Windows username/password (cleartext only)	+ SSL/TLS decryptions with certificate spoofing	+ Transparent redirection support for Linux and *BSD 6. Configuration	+ support for configuration files	+ support for includes in configuration files	+ interface binding	+ socket options	+ running as daemon process	+ utility for automated networks list building	+ configuration reload on any file change Unix	+ support for chroot	+ support for setgid	+ support for setuid	+ support for signals (SIGUSR1 to reload configuration) Windows	+ support --install as service	+ support --remove as service	+ support for service START, STOP, PAUSE and CONTINUE commands (on	PAUSE no new connection accepted, but active connections still in	progress, on CONTINUE configuration is reloaded) Windows 95/98/ME	+ support --install as service	+ support --remove as service 6. Compilation	+ MSVC (static)	+ OpenWatcom (static)	+ Intel Windows Compiler (msvcrt.dll)	+ Windows/gcc (msvcrt.dll)	+ Cygwin/gcc (cygwin.dll)	+ Unix/gcc	+ Unix/ccc	+ Solaris	+ Mac OS X, iPhone OS	+ Linux and derivered systems	+ Lite version for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP/2003	+ 32 bit and 64 bit versions for Windows Vista and above, Windows 2008 server and above 3proxy	Combined proxy server may be used as	executable or service (supports installation and removal).	It uses config file to read it's configuration (see	3proxy.cfg.sample for details).	3proxy.exe is all-in-one, it doesn't require all others .exe	to work.	See 3proxy.cfg.sample for examples, see man 3proxy.cfg proxy	HTTP proxy server, binds to port 3128 ftppr	FTP proxy server, binds to port 21 socks	SOCKS 4/5 proxy server, binds to port 1080 ftppr	FTP proxy server, please do not mess it with FTP over HTTP	proxy used in browsers pop3p	POP3 proxy server, binds to port 110. You must specify	POP3 username as username@target.host.ip[:port]	port is 110 by default.	Exmple: in Username configuration for you e-mail reader	set someuser@pop.example.org, to obtains mail for someuser	from pop.somehost.ru via proxy. smtpp	SMTP proxy server, binds to port 25. You must specify	SMTP username as username@target.host.ip[:port]	port is 25 by default.	Exmple: in Username configuration for you e-mail reader	set someuser@mail.example.org, to send mail as someuser	via mail.somehost.ru via proxy. tcppm	TCP port mapping. Maps some TCP port on local machine to	TCP port on remote host. tlspr	TLS proxy (SNI proxy) - sniffs hostname from TLS handshake udppm	UDP port mapping. Maps some UDP port on local machine to	UDP port on remote machine. Only one user simulationeously	can use UDP mapping, so it cann't be used for public service	in large networks. It's OK to use it to map to DNS server	in small network or to map Counter-Strike server for single	client (you can use few mappings on different ports for	different clients in last case). mycrypt	Program to obtain crypted password fro cleartext. Supports	both MD5/crypt and NT password.	mycrypt password	produces NT password	mycrypt salt password	produces MD5/crypt password with salt "salt". Run utility with --help option for command line reference. Latest version is available from https://3proxy.org/ Want to donate the project? https://3proxy.org/donations/
