.TH SOCKS.FC 5 "May 6, 1996"
.SH NAME
.nf
socks.fc \- Frozen configuration file for SOCKS clients
.fi
.SH SYNOPSIS
/etc/socks.fc
.SH DESCRIPTION
The frozen configuration file is produced by \fImake_socksfc\fR and
is essentially the
memory image of the parsed configuration file. Using the frozen configuration
file can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS client programs since
they no longer have to parse the file contents.
When the SOCKS client starts, it always looks for the frozen
configuration file \fB/etc/socks.fc\fP first . If that file
is not found, it then tries to use the plain-text configuration file
\fB/etc/socks.conf\fP. If you use frozen configuration,
you must remember to run \fImake_socksfc\fR every time after you
modify the plain-text file or the SOCKS clients will continue to use
the frozen file of a previous configuration.
To find out the contents of a frozen configuration file, use
\fIdump_socksfc\fR.
