Alloy Proxy

A proxy is just used to bypass torrent download blocking through your ISP's network. Separately, the proxy server can block the host, that is, the owner of the site where the torrent files are posted. But it happens mostly due to malicious violations of the rules for using such a resource (for example, "cheating" rating).

To check a proxy for blacklisting, it is necessary to use special tools developed for this purpose. Many proxy-checkers provide free online IP-address verification and provide detailed information related to the proxy servers security. To get it, just enter the IP address of the proxy and click on the "Verify" button.

It's a router that redirects all traffic through a VPN server. Many router models support this function, you only need to specify the data for connecting to a particular VPN (that is, enter the parameters that will provide a VPN service). And some manufacturers provide such routers, in which all settings are already prescribed (the developers themselves provide a VPN-service or are representatives of such).

To configure a proxy in Nginx, you need to modify the Nginx configuration file and add the appropriate proxy settings. Follow these steps to set up a proxy in Nginx:

Open the Nginx configuration file: This file is typically located at /etc/nginx/nginx.conf or /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf, depending on your system and Nginx installation. You may need root or administrative privileges to edit this file.

Locate the http block: Inside the Nginx configuration file, look for the http block, which contains the global settings for your Nginx server.

Add a server block: Within the http block, add a new server block that specifies the domain name or IP address and port number of the client request you want to proxy to another server. For example:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://your-destination-server.com;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }
}

Replace example.com with the domain name you want to proxy to the destination server, and http://your-destination-server.com with the destination server's address and port number.

Configure proxy settings: Within the location block, add the necessary proxy settings to forward the client's request to the destination server and pass along the appropriate headers. Some common proxy settings include:

- proxy_pass: Specifies the destination server's address and port number.
- proxy_set_header: Sets the value of specific headers to be sent to the destination server.
- proxy_redirect: Redirects URLs in the response from the destination server to a different URL.
- proxy_connect_timeout: Sets the timeout for establishing a connection to the destination server.
- proxy_read_timeout: Sets the timeout for reading the response from the destination server.
- proxy_send_timeout: Sets the timeout for sending a response to the client.

Save the configuration file: After making the necessary changes, save the Nginx configuration file.

Test the configuration: Before restarting Nginx, test the configuration to ensure there are no syntax errors. You can do this by running the following command:

nginx -t

If the test is successful, Nginx will output Configuration test successful.

Restart Nginx: Apply the changes by restarting the Nginx server. Depending on your system, you can use one of the following commands:

sudo service nginx restart

or

sudo systemctl restart nginx

After completing these steps, your Nginx server will act as a proxy and forward client requests to the specified destination server.

You need to go to "Settings", under "Sharing" select "VPN". And there you can either enter the connection parameters manually (address, port number, username and password), or choose a program that automatically connects the user to the proxy (free applications of this type can be found in Google Play).
