Hi, Juliusz. I appreciate getting your reply. I have a program that uses http and https to retrieve text files from sites on the internet. I want to run it with socat so that I can then make use of Polipo, which I already have installed and working correctly. Currently, Polipo connects to a socks proxy and allows me to make use of tor over the internet. I have it configured to utilize port 8080 right now with tor. What I want to do is to have the program pointing at socat, which can then intercept the program's transmissions (I would hope), which are made only on ports 80 and 443, channel them to Polipo and from there the data would be sent to the socks proxy, tor. I don't know how to explain it much more than that, and I am not sure whether this is included in your earlier reference to an Intercepting Proxy. Thank you.

I'm not clear what you're trying to do here. If you're trying to implement an intercepting proxy, please see http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/polipo/faq.html#interception If you're trying to do something else, please let us know. -- Juliusz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
