Hi *,=20
I plan to package delegate. From the manual:
Delegated is the DeleGate server process which relays TCP/IP protocols
like HTTP, Gopher, Whois, FTP, Telnet, NNTP, SMTP, POP, and so on.
The DeleGate mediates communications between a server and a client
those are isolated from each other by FIREWALL for security. If
necessary, DeleGate also achieves caching, domain name resolution,
and JIS character code conversion by proxy for clients. The DeleGate
supports a kind of MOUNTing that gives a integrated view for distribut=
ed
services on remote hosts, which may be hidden in a firewall. A pair of
DeleGate servers can be chained to form a TUNNEL that convey TCP/IP
communication via non TCP/IP protocols like tty I/O on a phone line,
because the inter DeleGate communication does not depend on TCP/IP.
Unlike other proxy servers like SOCKS or PROXY_HTTP, NO modification f=
or
HTTP and Gopher clients is necessary to cope with DeleGate. Thus any
existing client programs on various platforms are able to enjoy the
benefits of DeleGate right away (see DEFECT).
