Hi Victor, Try to understand your question: is this about something like root_proxy variable? Since you have done a proxy setup so I suppose your question is not about if and how for setting up a proxy. I don't think we currently have this. But I think you can request such a feature to be implemented. In the mean time, I am doing similar things at SLAC by manipulating the NAT table in iptables (modify TCP head so that traffic to host A is sent to host B, etc.) regards, Wei Yang | [log in to unmask] | 1-650-926-3338 On Jun 26, 2013, at 11:43 AM, Victor Kotlyar <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Dear xrootd experts. > > Since 6th of June we have problems with connection to outside Russia for > our institute. > We investigate any possibility to use another Institutes for rerouting > our Grid traffic. > > So I have a very simple question: is it possible to create a proxy > server for xroot? > > For example we use http_proxy environment variable to redirect all http > traffic through http proxy server on WorkingNodes. > > On our Grid site Alice experiment initiates many connections on 1095tcp > port to outside storage servers and it would be very usefull just to set > xroot_proxy environment variable and install xrootd in proxy mode on > other site. > > I guess that it is not so simple.
