Description

A lightweight SOCKS5 service that you can run on your remote boxes to tunnel connections through them, if for some reason SSH doesn't cut it for you.

It handles resource exhaustion gracefully by simply denying new connections, instead of calling abort() as most other programs do these days.

Another plus is ease-of-use: no config file necessary, everything can be done from the command line and doesn't even need any parameters for quick setup.
