local-transparent-proxy-forwarder

Without configure various proxy settings, just let any process be able to access external web site which actually actually via a real proxy server

In a private environment with HTTP/HTTPS proxy server, you might have been sick of that a lot of program does not respect global proxy settings(such as http_proxy/https_proxy environment variable).

I managed to integrate iptables and some http tunnel tool to make any program be able to access external web site as if they are already directly connected to internet.

Currently only works in Linux

Install

1. prepare your proxy env and ensure that you can run sudo

http_proxy=http://100.88.77.66:9999

./tp-init.sh 100.88.77.66 9999
