Does anyone know a PHP script that works like a proxy server (WITHOUT using a web server like Apache)? I'm looking for PHP based, so I can edit / modify the traffic that goes through it (for security reasons). The closest I found is philtron (http://philtron.sourceforge.net/), but it seems to be an outdated project and no longer works with PHP5.
You can use Nanoweb , a web server implemented in PHP. It comes with mod_proxy . Although traffic management will require a few additional code changes. It was not meant for this. OTOH is the most suitable PHP / 1.1 solution for PHP that you will find.
I am not a big PHP expert, and I am sure that you can implement a web server in PHP, but that’s not how it is done. If you do not want to use Apache, try using nginx(lightweight, easy to change, etc.).
