Package: tsocks (1.8beta5-3)

transparent network access through a SOCKS 4 or 5 proxy

tsocks provides transparent network access through a SOCKS version 4 or 5 proxy (usually on a firewall). tsocks intercepts the calls applications make to establish TCP connections and transparently proxies them as necessary. This allows existing applications to use SOCKS without recompilation or modification.
