I created a new user registration process that allows new members to retrieve there extended profile information from my competitor if they have an account on that site. harmless (most people copy the info over anyway) but i'm pretty sure my competitor would block my site IP even though the newuser is request thee own info from a public (no login needed) profile. So I figure setup a proxy and it wont be noticeable.
i don't mind share my concept/idea ex: say you have profile on plentyoffish and you join my site instead of writing you description and what your looking for all over again. you type in your username and within a sec its ported over instant profile all u have to do is confirm your acct upload a pic and fill out any unique options and you're done. not building a dating site but just an example.Comment

correct. I've written my script in php using simple_html_dom, works perfectly. I added in some proxy coding and tested with a public proxy. Now I just need to setup my own privately controlled proxy IP (server) so I can have complete control over the speed/uptime. any ideas on how to setup a proxy server on RHEL?Comment
