NAME

       socksify - dynamically SOCKSifies a program

SYNOPSIS

       socksify program [ arguments ]

DESCRIPTION

       socksify is Dante's equivalent of the NEC SOCKS' runsocks.  sockisfy uses LD_PRELOAD environment variable
       to wrap all networking-related system calls so that programs can go  thought  a  SOCKS  server  that  was
       installed as part of a firewall.

SEE ALSO

       dante.conf(5)

NOTES

       A  more  permanent  solution would be to add the LD_PRELOAD environment value to the shell startup files.
       Then all non-set[ug]id applications that are linked dynamically would be socksified.   However  this  can
       have bad side-effects.
