In computer networks, a proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application program) that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server. The proxy server evaluates the request according to its filtering rules. For example, it may filter traffic by IP address or protocol. If the request is validated by the filter, the proxy provides the resource by connecting to the relevant server and requesting the service on behalf of the client. A proxy server may optionally alter the client's request or the server's response, and sometimes it may serve the request without contacting the specified server. In this case, it 'caches' responses from the remote server, and returns subsequent requests for the same content directly. A proxy server has a large variety of potential purposes, including:
A proxy server that passes requests and replies unmodified is usually called a gateway or sometimes tunneling proxy. A proxy server can be placed in the user's local computer or at various points between the user and the destination servers on the Internet. A reverse proxy is (usually) an Internet-facing proxy used as a front-end to control and protect access to a server on a private network, commonly also performing tasks such as load-balancing, authentication, decryption or caching.

Q. Tell me best proxy server. Tell me also benefits of a proxy server. Asked by Abdul Hameed - Thu Nov 29 08:45:16 2007 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. There's no such thing as a normal server, servers are just computers, the difference is in the functions they serve. A proxy server is simply a server that receives requests from clients (most of the time we're talking about HTTP proxies and web browsers are the clients), and then forwards them on to the destination (and acts as a proxy between the client and destination). There are many benefits to a proxy server, the least of which is the privacy benefit people above talked about. Most proxies have a caching feature, so that when someone views a web site, that page gets put in a cache on the proxy server and when someone else goes to get that page, the proxy server pulls from it's cache instead of making the request to the real server… [cont.] Answered by Crash - Thu Nov 29 10:48:12 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Proxy server"
