Description

tsocks allows non SOCKS aware applications (e.g telnet, ssh, ftp etc) to use SOCKS without any modification. It does this by intercepting the calls that applications make to establish network connections and negotiating them through a SOCKS server as necessary.

tsocks is based on the 'shared library interceptor' concept. Through use of the LD_PRELOAD environment variable, tsocks is automatically loaded into the process space of every executed program.
