ok i need to develope an application like wingate or squid to act as a gateway/proxy/cache server. example;

have my app on a server machine

all client machines have their default gateway set to the server IP

and the server app logs all http request esentially. can this be done with VDS and i would call myself an intermediate VDS user.

VDS can be used as an HTTP server, Proxy server and FTP server using one or some of the various extensions available. I remember making a proxy server for my house years ago using an extension from PGWare. But at the moment, I don't remember which extension it was or where I have the source code for this at this time.

There was a dll created by PGWARE called httpd.dll


Quote:
Description:
This is an extension that provides an http daemon (webserver) to your visual dialogscript applications. Within minutes you can start up a webserver from your local machine. Set the default path and port and your ready to go. The extension will also trigger events when someone connects and requests a document, as well as when a user disconnects from the server. Httpd servers usually connect multiple times to retrieve images and disconnect many times after receiving images/files and all of this information is provided. A majority of this extension uses portions of the ICS components created by Francois PIETTE from the Delphi Community, special thanks to him. The dll comes with the source code so you can make modifications if you would like to. The source code was compiled in Borland Delphi 6.

If you use this extension in a commercial/shareware application or have made money off your application in anyway please send us a donation, you are not required to do so but it would be nice if you would donate. Any donation amount is welcomed, your donation is 100% secure with an online payment to RegNet. Also please take a look at our product Alloy at http://www.pgware.com/. Alloy can integrate the vds runtime dll into your exe file. Alloy can also put other files inside of the exe such as bitmaps and other dll's, so you only have one single exe to distribute to your end-users. Give it a try and see what Alloy can do for your applications.

Commands:
[+] HTTPD DEFAULTDIR,<directory>
[+] HTTPD DEFAULTDOC,<filename>
[+] HTTPD DEFAULTPORT,<port>
[+] HTTPD EVENTS,<mode>
[+] HTTPD OFF
[+] HTTPD ON


I still have a copy, and it should work with vds3,4 & 5 and prob should work with vds 6
