tinyproxy - A small HTTP proxy server

tinyproxy [ options ]

This man page documents tinyproxy

tinyproxy is an HTTP proxy server designed to consume a minimum of system resources. It listens on a given TCP port and handles HTTP proxy requests.

-c config_file

Use an alternate configuration file.

-d

Don't daemonize; stay in the foreground. Useful for debugging purposes.

-h

Display a short help screen of command line arguments and exit.

-l

Displays the licensing agreement.

-v

Display version information and exit.

In addition to these command line options, there are also several signals that can be sent to tinyproxy while it is running to generate debugging information and to force certain events.

SIGHUP

Force tinyproxy to do a garbage collection on the current connections linked list. This is usually done automatically after a certain number of connections have been handled.
