Turnkey Proxy Server

Install the Nginx web server and disable the virtual tail. Next, in the /etc/nginx/sites-available directory, create a reverse-proxy.conf file. The file should be saved after completing the installation and quit the editor by typing "wq. You can send information to other servers by using the ngx_http_proxy_module in the terminal. Now activate the directives and test Nginx and the reverse proxy.

Click on the three bars located in the upper right corner and click on "Settings". When the settings page appears in front of you, go down to the "System" section and click on "Proxy settings". In the window that appears, click on "Network settings" and then check the box next to "Use a proxy server for local connections". Now all you have to do is enter the IP address and port of the proxy server, and then save your changes.

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.

Using UDP, you can request data from a server by sending a request message to the server. Since UDP is a connectionless protocol, you need to know the server's IP address and port to send the request. The server should have a predefined mechanism to handle incoming requests and return the desired data as a response.

Here's a high-level overview of how to request data from a server using UDP:

1. Prepare your request message: Create a message containing the data you want to request from the server. The format of the message depends on the specific application and data you're working with.

2. Send the request message to the server: Use a UDP socket to send the request message to the server's IP address and port. The server should be listening for incoming UDP packets on that address and port.

3. Receive the response from the server: The server processes the incoming request and sends back a response. Use a UDP socket to receive the response on the same or a different port, depending on the application's requirements.

4. Process the response: Extract the desired data from the response and process it as needed.

Here's an example using Python:

import socket

# Prepare the request message
request_message = b"REQUEST_DATA"

# Create a UDP socket
client_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)

# Send the request message to the server
server_address = ('127.0.0.1', 12345)
client_socket.sendto(request_message, server_address)

# Receive the response from the server
response_message, server_address = client_socket.recvfrom(1024)

# Process the response
print(f"Received response: {response_message}")

# Close the socket
client_socket.close()

In this example, the sendto() function sends a request message to the server, and the recvfrom() function receives the response from the server. The server should be running and listening for incoming UDP packets on the specified address and port.

To check if your computer uses a proxy-server, you just need to use any browser (Yandex Browser, Opera, Google Chrome). Then you need to follow the algorithm:

Start your browser.
Go to "Settings".
In the search box enter the query "proxy".
Click on "Proxy settings".
In the tab that opens, select "Network settings".
This will open a tab with the IP address and port of the proxy server, if it is used. If the function is disabled, the line will be empty, and the option itself is disabled.
