problem configuring PHProxy

Message:

i read a tutorial about proxy setting and that is
A proxy server is one that receives requests intended for another server and that acts on the behalf of the client (as the client proxy) to obtain the requested service. A proxy server is often used when the client and the server are incompatible for direct connection. For example, the client may be unable to meet the security authentication requirements of the server but may be required to access some services. It may also be used for screening purposes to enable the administrator to control access to undesirable sites. The proxy server may also be used for caching purposes which enables faster access to frequently used websites. All the computers connected to the LAN access the Internet through a single IP address which results in improved security simply because the number of ports exposed is reduced.

Proxy servers work on the seventh layer (the Application Layer) of the OSI model thus tending to be application dependent unlike firewalls that work at lower layers. They are also more difficult to install and maintain than firewalls, as proxy functionality for each application protocol like HTTP, SMTP, or SOCKS must be configured individually. However, a properly configured proxy server improves network security and performance. Since proxy servers function at the OSI Application layer, their filtering capabilities are relatively intelligent. For example, proxy web servers can check the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of outgoing requests for Web pages by inspecting HTTP GET and POST messages. Using this feature, network administrators can bar access to illegal domains but allow access to other sites. Ordinary firewalls, in contrast, cannot see Web domain names inside those messages. Likewise for incoming data traffic, ordinary routers can filter by port number or network address, but proxy servers can also filter based on application content inside the messages.
WinProxy

One of the most popular proxy servers available for windows based systems is WinProxy. One of the reasons for its popularity is that no software has to be installed on the client systems. This is possible since WinProxy is a transparent proxy server meaning that it also provides NAT (Network Address Translation). Due to this the client system is virtually unaware of the existence of the proxy server. Apart from the usual caching and security features it also supports important protocols like HTTP, Real Audio/Video, Mail, FTP, NNTP News, Telnet, Socks, Secure Sockets, DNS, IMAP 4, etc.

The WinProxy Server may be installed and configured as follows as follows:

1. Install the TCP/IP protocol on all systems connected to the network.
2. Run the Install Wizard. The first screen is the product registration screen which require you to enter the product key.
3. The next two screens require information about your Internet connection. Select the type of connection and the name of your connection.
4. Enter the username and password of the Internet connection to be used.
5. WinProxy then configures the internal and external IP addresses. It automatically assigns a unique address to each device on the LAN as internal addresses. The IP address assigned to the modem/router by your ISP is taken as the external address.
6. WinProxy then prompts you to disconnect from the Internet if you are already connected.
7. In the final step WinProxy works through all the steps and verifies that all operations have been performed properly.

If any body did not understand then he/she can read this tutorial too.....

running php, noob question in Discussion Boards : Help me!

Topic:

running php, noob question

Message:

By default, apache will serve up an index.html file from it's home directory. Most pre-constructed wamp packages will also serve up index.php. If neither of the files are present, it will serve up a list of the files in the directory. If you request a file that doesn't exist, it will return (more or less instantly) a 404 - Not Found message.

If you have been unable to load any pages, you have a problem with the installation.

Uninstall the package you have, go download the three items separately and set it up properly - there is much less chance of having such a problem.

Here is a good guide on how to do a first time installation.

Message:

Hi! I am excited to try your ziplocator class; however, I have getting some errors with it. When I try to run it (after I have populated the DB with Zips and such), I get the error requesting a DBWrapper class. That was not part of your download. So, I did a google search for DBWrapper.class.php and took the first one I found (hoping that they are all the same; shame on me). It does not have a getInstance() method. How do I get a copy of the DBWrapper class your script requires? Please email me back at seth dot ammons at gmail dot com.
