CLI

s5p                                         # direct, listen :1080
s5p -C socks5://127.0.0.1:9050             # through Tor
s5p -C socks5://tor:9050,http://px:8080    # Tor + HTTP proxy
s5p -c config/example.yaml                  # from config file
s5p -l 0.0.0.0:9999                         # custom listen address
s5p -t 30                                   # 30s per-hop timeout
s5p -v                                      # debug logging
s5p -q                                      # errors only

Proxy URLs

socks5://host:port
socks5://user:pass@host:port
socks4://host:port
http://host:port
http://user:pass@host:port

Testing

# Check exit IP
curl -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://httpbin.org/ip

# Verbose curl
curl -v -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com

# With timeout
curl --max-time 30 -x socks5h://127.0.0.1:1080 https://example.com

Troubleshooting

Symptom Check
Connection refused Is Tor running? ss -tlnp | grep 9050
Timeout Increase -t, check proxy reachability
DNS leak Use socks5h:// (not socks5://) in client
Auth failed Verify credentials in proxy URL
