Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
I intend to package called tsocks.
Package: tsocks
License: GPL
URL: http://tsocks.sourceforge.net/
Description:
-----------------
tsocks provides transparent network access through a SOCKS
version 4 or 5 proxy (usually on a firewall). tsocks intercepts the
calls applications make to create TCP connections and determines if
they can be directly accessed or need the SOCKS server. If they need
the SOCKS server they connection is negotiated with the server
transparently to the application. This allows existing applications to
use SOCKS without recompilation or modification. tsocks is a wrapper
library for the libc connect() call.
