.\" Revised man page 10/13/01, for development version. .\" Hal Burgiss .\" for Junkbuster developers: ijbswa-developers@lists.sourceforge.net .\" .TH JUNKBUSTER 1 "v2.9.10 (beta) Date: 2002/01/09" .SH NAME \fBjunkbuster\fP - The Internet Junkbuster Proxy \s-2(TM)\s+2 .SH SYNOPSIS \fBjunkbuster\fP \fI\&[config_file]\fP .br \fBjunkbstr.exe\fP \fI\&[config_file]\fP (Windows) .br .P If the configuration file is not specified on the command line, \fBJunkbuster\fP will look for a file named \fIconfig\fP in the current directory (except on Amiga where it will look for \fIAmiTCP:db/junkbuster/config\fP and Win32 where it will try \fIconfig.txt\fP). .SH DESCRIPTION \fBJunkbuster\fP is an instrumentable HTTP proxy that filters the \s-2HTTP\s0 data stream between web servers and browsers. \fBJunkbuster\fP can be used to protect privacy, manage cookies, filter web page content, manage access restrictions, and to discard such annoying Internet junk as ads, banners, and pop-ups. Or whatever other annoyances strike your fancy. .SH INSTALLATION AND USE Browsers must be configured to use \fBJunkbuster\fP (the default is localhost, port 8000). To set the \s-2HTTP\s0 proxy in Netscape and Mozilla, go through: \fB\&Edit\fP; \fB\&Preferences\fP; \fB\&Advanced\fP; \fB\&Proxies\fP; \fB\&Manual Proxy Configuration\fP; \fB\&View\fP. .P For Internet Explorer, go through: \fB\&Tools\fP; \fB\&Internet Properties\fP; \fB\&Connections\fP; \fB\&LAN Settings\fP. .P Set the HTTP proxy location for localhost, port 8000. The Secure (SSL) Proxy\" ijbfaq.html#security should also be set to the same values, otherwise \fB\&https:\fP \s-2URL\s0s won't be proxied. .P For other browser, check the documentation. .SH CONFIGURATION All \fBJunkbuster\fP configuration is done via the various configuration files. The default configuration files are: \fIconfig\fP, \fIijb.action\fP, and \fIre_filterfile\fP. These are well commented. On Unix and Unix-like systems, these are located in \fI/etc/junkbuster/\fP by default. On Windows and OS/2, these files are in the same directory as the \fBJunkbuster\fP executable. .P The name and number of configuration files has changed from previous versions, and is subject to change as development progresses. In fact, the configuration itself is changed and much more sophisticated. See the user-manual for a brief explanation of all configuration options. .P \fBJunkbuster's\fP configuration parameters can be viewed at \fIhttp://i.j.b/\fP. This is an internal page. In addition, the \fIijb.action\fP file can be edited here, and \fBJunkbuster\fP can be toggled on/off. .SH "SAMPLE CONFIGURATION" .PP A brief example of what an \fIijb.action\fP configuration might look like: .PP .nf # Define a few useful custom aliases for later use {{alias}} # Don't accept cookies +no-cookies = +no-cookies-set +no-cookies-read # Do accept cookies -no-cookies = -no-cookies-set -no-cookies-read +imageblock = +block +image ## Default Policies (actions) ############################ { \\ -block \\ -downgrade \\ +fast-redirects \\ +filter \\ +no-compression \\ +hide-forwarded \\ +hide-from{block} \\ +hide-referer{forge} \\ -hide-user-agent \\ -image \\ +image-blocker{blank} \\ +no-cookies-keep \\ -no-cookies-read \\ -no-cookies-set \\ +no-popups \\ -vanilla-wafer \\ -wafer \\ } / # Now set exceptions to the above defined policies ####### # Sites where we want persistant cookies {-no-cookies -no-cookies-keep} .redhat.com .sun.com .yahoo.com .msdn.microsoft.com # This site requires cookies AND 'fast-redirects' on {-no-cookies -no-cookies-keep -fast-redirects} .nytimes.com # Add custom headers, and turn off filtering of page source {+add-header{X-Privacy: Yes please} #-add-header{*} \\ +add-header{X-User-Tracking: No thanks!} -filter} privacy.net # Block, and treat these URLs as 'images'. {+imageblock} .adforce.imgis.com .ad.preferences.com/image.* .ads.web.aol.com .ad-adex3.flycast.com .ad.doubleclick.net .ln.doubleclick.net .ad.de.doubleclick.net /.*/count\\.cgi\\?.*df= 194.221.183.22[1-7] a196.g.akamai.net/7/196/2670/000[12]/images.gmx.net/i4/images/.*/ # Block any URLs that match these patterns {+block} /.*/(.*[-_.])?ads?[0-9]?(/|[-_.].*|\\.(gif|jpe?g)) /.*/(plain|live|rotate)[-_.]?ads?/ /.*/(sponsor)s?[0-9]?/ /.*/ad(server|stream|juggler)\\.(cgi|pl|dll|exe) /.*/adbanners/ /.*/adv((er)?ts?|ertis(ing|ements?))?/ /.*/banners?/ /.*/popupads/ /.*/advert[0-9]+\\.jpg /ad_images/ /.*/ads/ /images/.*/.*_anim\\.gif /rotations/ /.*(ms)?backoff(ice)?.*\\.(gif|jpe?g) 195.63.104.*/(inbox|log|meld|folderlu|folderru|log(in|out)[lmr]u|) .images.nytimes.com .images.yahoo.com/adv/ /.*cnnstore\\.gif .fi .sp .PP See the comments in the configuration files themselves, or the user-manual for explanations of the above syntax, and other \fBJunkbuster\fP configuration options. .SH "FILES" \fI/usr/sbin/junkbuster\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/config\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/ijb.action\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/ijb-advanced.action\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/ijb-basic.action\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/ijb-intermediate.action\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/re_filterfile\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/trust\fP .br \fI/etc/junkbuster/templates/*\fP .br \fI/var/log/junkbuster/logfile\fP .P Various other files should be included, but may vary depending on platform and build configuration. More documentation should be included in the local documentation directory, though is not complete at this time. .SH SIGNALS \fBJunkbuster\fP use the signal \fISIGHUP\fP (see kill -l) to reload all configuration files (see CONFIGURATION). This includes the re-open of the logfiles (logfile and jarfile) eg. used after rotation of the logfiles by logrotate. The \fISIGHUP\fP behavior is only for UNIX like OS'. .br However the configfile will be re-read if \fBJunkbuster\fP detects a changed modification time and then behaves like a re-start of \fBJunkbuster\fP in context of all the pertinent files. .SH NOTES This is a development version of \fBJunkbuster\fP. Not all features are complete. .SH BUGS Yes. HTTP/1.1 support is only partially implemented. See the user-manual for how and where to report bugs. .SH SEE ALSO .br http://i.j.b/ .br http://ijbswa.sourceforge.net/ .br http://sourceforge.net/projects/ijbswa .br http://www.waldherr.org/junkbuster/\" waldherr.org# .br http://www.junkbusters.com/ht/en/cookies.html\" cookies.html# .br http://privacy.net/analyze/ .br http://www.squid-cache.org/ .br http://linuxalpha.ch/packages/ .SH DEVELOPMENT TEAM .br Stefan Waldherr .br Andreas Oesterhelt .br Jon Foster .br Markus Breitenbach .br Thomas Steudten .br David Schmidt .br Haroon Rafique .br Jorg Strohmayer .br Shamim Mohamed .br Sarantis Paskalis .br Gabriel L.
