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.
