This instruction suitable for all Unix distributions. All commands above running with sudo privileges.

First of all you need to check your system version and distributive

For ubuntu 14 and older or debian 6 and older based systems add next repository to your system:

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Check out our full range of Datacenter Proxies

Compiling from source code more preffer, becouse you will get latest version and instruction is same for all unix versions and distributives, for example installation from repository is not supported for latest Ubuntu versions

 form source code you need to install git, make and gcc

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/z3APA3A/3proxy.git

this will download latest version of 3proxy to your machine

Next step to put files into correct path and setup autostart of service

mkdir /usr/local/etc/3proxy/bin –p
cp src/3proxy /usr/local/etc/3proxy/bin
cp ./scripts/rc.d/proxy.sh /etc/init.d/3proxy

If you running 3proxy from command line you need to uncomment it for close console, do not use it with service command.

First of all you need to change log path to UNIX format

For restrict possible network causes in your system or set default network interface for proxy use external/internal parameters with ip address of needed interface

None authentication, everybody who knows ip and port can use proxy

Note: there are a lot of proxy scanner in internet, be careful

Authentication using login and password, specified in users.conf file

With strong option you need to create list of users and passwords in /usr/local/etc/3proxy/users.conf

users username:NT:BF66EC776AD7125795882C742F011681

For generate NTLM hash from password you can use online tool

Note: If you using not encrypted passwords, its strongly recommended to set permissions to users.conf file

bandlimin <bitrate> <userlist> <sourcelist> <targetlist> <targetportlist> <commandlist>

For example, reduce speed to 100Kbps for user UserName

Additional you can disable limit for specify port, user or ip

Commands allow, deny and flush are used to manage ACLs:

allow <userlist> <sourcelist> <targetlist> <targetportlist> <commandlist> <weekdaylist> <timeperiodlist> 
 deny <userlist> <sourcelist> <targetlist> <weekdaylist> <timeperiodlist> 
 flush

Next parameters can be setted, but not necessary

-pNUMBER change default server port to NUMBER

-a (for proxy) – anonymous proxy (no information about client reported)

-a1 (for proxy) – anonymous proxy (random client information reported)

-a2 (for proxy) – generate Via: and X-Forwared-For: instead of Forwarded:

In mostly this configuration will be enough for using proxy

Configuration of SOCKS proxy is more simple than default proxy

For start this proxy add next line to config file

This will enable socks proxy on 1080 port, any additional configuration not needed

Note: If you using http and socks proxy together use

command before starting proxy to flush authorization information about client

Note: Be sure that you don`t have spaces at the line start!

For start or stop 3proxy with service use next command
