Privoxy
From Amahi Wiki
Privoxy is a web proxy program, frequently used in combination with Tor and Squid. It has filtering capabilities for protecting privacy, modifying web page data, managing cookies, controlling access, and selectively removing content such as ads, banners and pop-ups. It can be customized and has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user networks. [from Wikipedia]
Installation on Amahi server
$ yum install privoxy
Privoxy must be configured manually after yum-installation. Edit /etc/privoxy/config
, the line with listen-address
must be changed.
listen-address 127.0.0.1:8118
to
listen-address 192.168.1.50:8118
where 192.168.1.50 is your hda's IP address (the DNS name of your hda does not work).
In order to start privoxy, issue
$ /etc/init.d/privoxy start
TODO
- Packaging as an Amahi-application that can be installed and controlled from Amahi-dashboard
- Automatic configuration (listen-address)
- Coupling with DHCP or DNS-server so that clients can get automatic proxy configuration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wpad)
