Hi,
I was reading the site "ExitTheMatrix" (
http://jdoe.freeshell.org/howtos/ExitTheMatrix/ar01s03.html
) and I found directions to route non-HTTP protocols
through Privoxy...
Quoted from ExitTheMatrix:
--------------------------
If you intend to use Privoxy to access non-web ports
(such as IRC), you may want to edit "default.action"
and replace the line containing "limit-connect" with
"+limit-connect{1-}" to allow privoxy to connect to
all ports.
--------------------------
Has anyone tried this? I thought Privoxy was only an
HTTP srubber.
What would the benifit be to routing other protocols
through Privoxy? Does Privoxy filter these protocols
also?
____________________________________________
While were on the subject; here is my Privoxy "Main
Configuration" lines for routing Tor and I2P:
forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 .
forward .i2p localhost:4444

Thank you for any help and information givin.
