Dialup for Out-bound, Satellite dish for In-bound
Query from Saudi Arabia:
"I have downloaded PPPShare and tested it on my Dail-up/Satellite "One-Way"
Connection. Here are my findings:

My Satellite connection is a "One-Way" Connection. It uses a Normal
Dial-up (via Modem) for Out-Bound Traffic, and all In-Bound Traffic
comes through the satellite dish.

The satellite connection uses a special PCI Digital Receiver/NIC with a
MAC Address. The IP for the Receiver/NIC is set to 10.10.10.10 with
subnet mask 255.255.255.0

The Dial-up Connection used with the satellite connection has the HTTP
Proxy set to 127.0.0.1 Port: 9202, and SOCKS 127.0.0.1 Port: 9203. No
other servers are setup.

PPPShare worked fine with HTTPS and FTP. However, it did NOT work with
HTTP nor SOCKS. My guess is that it is due to the 127.0.0.1 (Loop back
Connection).

Could you recommend a solution/solutions?"

SOLUTION:

Copy and paste the following into PPPshar Pro Settings file
(settings.ini) at the end of the file.

#oneway
service=oneway
map=tcp
host=127.0.0.1
listen=81
remote=9202
enable=yes

#oneway2
service=oneway2
map=tcp
host=127.0.0.1
listen=1080
remote=9203
enable=yes

Disable #http and #socks - change enable=yes to enable=no

Save and restart pppshar. Then verify the proxy settings in the
browser in the client pc. The http proxy address should point to
pppshar/gateway pc IP address and port 81 for http and 1080 for
socks.
