Hi, I have tinyproxy setup via transmissionvpnbut I am unable connect to any website when I set up proxy on Edge and Internet Explorer but Firefox is perfectly fine.

Any solution please?

Thank you so much

does it work without vpn stuff ?

mouzzampk2014-zz commented 4 years ago

Basically transmissionvpn setup with vpn. Let me quickly setup tinyproxyimage separately.

Thank you

Hi, apologise for little late reply. I just tested with this compose and I can access the websites.

  tinyproxy:
    image: kalaksi/tinyproxy
    restart: unless-stopped
    cap_drop:
      - ALL
    ports:
      - 8888:8888
    environment:
      DISABLE_VIA_HEADER: 'yes'
      STAT_HOST: tinyproxy.stats
      MAX_CLIENTS: 100
      MIN_SPARE_SERVERS: 50
      MAX_SPARE_SERVERS: 100
      ALLOWED_NETWORKS: 192.168.1.0/24

Not sure why not with VPN. Any ideas?

Thank you

is that a dockerfile? why not just use tinyproxy as-is? in any case if tinyproxy on its own works, then it's pretty likely the issue here is the transmissionvpn thing, whatever that is.

Thanks, yes its docker compose. Is there any example I can follow to use tinyproxy with my vpn provider?

rofl0r commented 4 years ago

well, you need to compile the sources as described in the README... and then setup things for that vpn provider, which basically requires that you read and understand the tinyproxy config file and manpages. if you need help doing so maybe there's a local linux user group or something. anyway if you can capture a pcap with wireshark of a connection with IE and another one with chrome were it works i can take a look and maybe figure out whats wrong, but the pcaps will likely have private data like your password in them.

Sorry for late reply. Thank you so much for looking into this. I will setup wireshark and forward you the info by tomorrow evening. Thanks again
