This is proxytunnel, a program that connects stdin and stdout to an origin server through HTTPS proxy.

Short guide to installing proxytunnel

On most modern unix systems, use the normal Makefile

On MAC OS X, use Makefile.darwin

If you don't have gnu-getopts, use Makefile.no-gnu-getopts

If you want to enable setproctitle functionality, add a CFLAGS define -DSETPROCTITLE (uncomment sample in Makefile)

Run make and optionally 'make install'.

If you manually want to install, copy proxytunnel to /usr/local/bin and optionally the manual-page from the debian-subdirectory to your manpath.

What's New in This Release:
Replaced call to getpass to getpass_x, which comes from openssh's readpassphrase.c. This should handle longer passwords on systems with broken (crappy) getpass calls (solaris/hpux).
