Tinyproxy is a light-weight HTTP proxy daemon for POSIX operating systems.

Install it :
# pacman-g2 -S tinyproxy

Configure it :
Edit /etc/tinyproxy.conf

Allow 127.0.0.1
Allow XX.XX.XX.XX

Added all ip adress that can use this proxy

By default tinyproxy use the port 1024
Port 1024

Enable/start it:
# systemctl enable tinyproxy.service
# systemctl start tinyproxy.service

Securise it (tunnel ssh) :
Just create a ssh tunnel with this server on 1024 port and allow only 127.0.0.1 into /etc/tinyproxy.conf .

You can this solution if a/your firewall block proxy acces :p

Into your browser use the proxy localhost with port 1024.
