Extend IpCop webproxy functionality

By default functionality of web-proxy in IpCop is not much customizable. For expanding this we need to install addon such as this: http://www.advproxy.net/download.html

In previous post I showed that you can install addons from there but somehow this addon panel does not like it and is saying that it is no authorized addon. So we can do it differently.

Installing the Advanced Proxy add-on for IpCop.

Using gFTP (linux) yourIpCop address (PORT 222), login to the IPCop and copy the ipcop-advproxy-3.0.5.tar.gz file to the IPCop root.

From the IPCop console or (using PuTTy (PORT 222)) log into IPCop and type:

# tar -xzvf advproxy-3.0.5.tar.gz

# cd ipcop-advproxy

# ./install

# logout

After this you should see Advanced proxy panel in your IpCop webpanel

 

Configuration is made easy, just set it up as you want and dont forget to force client to use proxy in browser.

We can also set file download limit size. You get this message in browser if you try to download file bigger than you defined in settings.
