% -- implies a command prompt for a non-privileged user
(subin)
delegated -- the name of an executable file of DeleGate (download) -Pport -- the port on which DeleGate accepts requests from clients (install) SERVER=proto -- the protocol in which DeleGate communicate with clients -v -- the option to run DeleGate in foreground putting the log to console ADMIN=you@your.domain -- the E-mail address of the administrator of the DeleGate +=filename -- loading command line arguments from a file |
The simplest command to run DeleGate as a HTTP proxy is as follows:
To test a command observing the progress, use "-v" option to make DeleGate run in foreground with logging on the console.
You will be asked the E-mail address of the administrator (it should be yourself) if your delegated is got as the binary distribution. It can be specified in the ADMIN argument.
A list of command line arguments can be loaded from a file with "+=filename" option. The file contains an argument per line.
When you use DeleGate on the privileged port (of number lower than 1024) on Unix, you need to run DeleGate with the privilege of the super-user.
But running DeleGate under the super-user's privilege is not recommended in the consideration of security. You should install subin to escape the problem.
