What is a Proxy
Server?
A proxy server is a computer that
offers a computer network service to allow clients to make indirect
network connections to other network services. A client connects to the
proxy server, then requests a connection, file, or other resource
available on a different server. The proxy provides the resource either
by connecting to the specified server or by serving it from a cache. In
some cases, the proxy may alter the client\'s request or the server\'s
response for various purposes.
