There are a number of them. Squid is an HTTP/FTP proxy. There's an open-source re-implentation of much of the functionality of the FWTK, also. The Dante SOCKS proxy does SOCKs v4 and v5, and is much more configurable than the original non-OSS NEC SOCKS proxy. For SMTP, most "regular" MTAs can be configured as a proxy, such as Postfix, Exim, and Qmail. I've personally used Postfix. All of these can be found on http://www.freshmeat.net. Wil -- W.
