shadowsocks

===========

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/clowwindy/shadowsocks.png)](https://travis-ci.org/clowwindy/shadowsocks)  

Current version: 1.0

shadowsocks is a lightweight tunnel proxy which can help you get through firewalls

Other ports and clients can be found [here](https://github.com/clowwindy/shadowsocks/wiki/Ports-and-Clients).

usage

-----------

First, make sure you have Python 2.6 or 2.7.

    $ python --version

    Python 2.6.8

Then edit `config.json`, change the following values:

    server          your server ip or hostname

    server_port     server port

    local_port      local port

    password        a password used to encrypt transfer

Put all the files on your server. Run `python server.py` on your server. To run it in the background, run `nohup python server.py > log &`.

Put all the files on your client machine. Run `python local.py` on your client machine.

Change proxy settings of your browser into

    SOCKS5 127.0.0.1:local_port

advanced

------------

You can use args to override settings from `config.json`.

    python local.py -s server_name -p server_port -l local_port -k password

    python server.py -p server_port -k password

You may want to install gevent for better performance.

    $ sudo apt-get install python-gevent

Or:

    $ sudo apt-get install libevent-dev python-pip

    $ sudo pip install gevent

troubleshooting

---------------

* I can only load some websites  

   Check the logs of local.py. If you see only IPs, not hostnames, your may got DNS poisoned, but your browser hasn't 

    been configured to let the proxy resolve DNS.  

   To set proper DNS config, you can simply install FoxyProxy / Autoproxy for Firefox, or ProxySwitchy / SwitchySharp for 

   Chrome. They will set the config in your browser automatically.  

   Or you can change network.proxy.socks_remote_dns into true in about:config page if you use Firefox.

* I can't load any websites and the log prints mode != 1  

    Make sure proxy protocol is set to Socks5, not Socks4 or HTTP.

* I use IE and I can't get my proxy to work    

    Since you can't specify Socks4 or Socks5 in IE settings, you may want to use a PAC(Proxy auto-config) script, or 

    just use Firefox instead.
