TinyProxy

Install Tinyproxy manually on a system without Emerge or apt-get

Download Tinyproxy - go to https://www.banu.com/tinyproxy/download/ and download the latest version ex: wget https://www.banu.com/pub/tinyproxy/1.6/tinyproxy-1.6.5.tar.gz

Unpackage

tar xzvf tinyproxy-1.6.5.tar.gz

Build

cd tinyproxy-1.6.5
./configure
make
sudo make install

If configure fails you need to install asciidoc. Download it and then

tar -xzf asciidoc-8.6.6.tar.gz
cd asciidoc-8.6.6 
autoconf
./configure
make
sudo make install

Then try again the configure from tinyproxy

Edit the configuration file:

nano /usr/local/etc/tinyproxy.conf

Adapt the paths, port, if you want log, and the Allow parameter.

Make some config files readable:

sudo chmod a+r /usr/local/etc/tinyproxy.conf

Create the log file:

sudo touch /var/log/tinyproxy.log
sudo chmod a+rw /var/log/tinyproxy.log
sudo touch /var/run/tinyproxy.pid
sudo chmod a+rw /var/run/tinyproxy.pid

You can optionally create a startup script for tinyproxy, in your home directory:

nano starttinyproxy

and paste this:

#!/bin/sh
killall tinyproxy
/usr/local/sbin/tinyproxy -c /usr/local/etc/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.conf -d &
# sleep 5
# tail /var/log/tinyproxy.log

save it, and make it executable:

chmod u+x starttinyproxy

Exit from root, and under your account, start up Tinyproxy: ./starttinyproxy

To autostart it, copy the script to /etc/init.d/

sudo cp starttinyproxy /etc/init.d
sudo rc-update add starttinyproxy default
