## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

MicroSocks is a small C SOCKS5 server maintained in rofl0r's GitHub repository. Its README presents it as the successor to rocksocks5, rebuilt with different priorities: use standard libc where possible, remove artificial limits, favor small readable source over extreme binary-size minimization, and support IPv4, DNS, and IPv6 through common code paths.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The project occupies the lightweight proxy-server niche rather than the full proxy-suite niche. A typical use is running a SOCKS5 service on a remote host when SSH tunneling is not suitable; it can start with no configuration file, listens on port 1080 by default, and exposes command-line options for listen address, port, username and password, bind address, whitelist, quiet logging, and one-time authentication. Its implementation model is deliberately simple: a low-stack thread per client and graceful refusal of new connections under resource exhaustion. In package managers it appears as a tiny standalone executable for users who need a SOCKS5 endpoint without deploying a larger daemon.
