NAME

meek-client - The meek client transport plugin
SYNOPSIS
--------
**meek-client** [__OPTIONS__]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
meek-client is a transport plugin for Tor that encodes a stream as a
sequence of HTTP requests and responses. It is usually run with the
**--url** and **--front** options. The **--url** option controls what
URL requests are made to; the web server at that URL should be
configured to forward requests to a meek-server somewhere. The
**--front** option is for domain name camouflage: The domain name in the
URL is replaced by the front domain before the request is made, but the
Host header inside the HTTP request still points to the original domain.
The idea is to front through a domain that is not blocked to a domain
that is blocked.
When the **--helper** option is used, you can use any type of proxy:
HTTP or SOCKS. Without **--helper**, you can only use an HTTP proxy.
OPTIONS
-------
**--front**=__DOMAIN__::
Front domain name. The **front** SOCKS arg overrides the command
line.
**--helper**=__ADDRESS__::
Address of HTTP helper browser extension. For example,
**--helper 127.0.0.1:7000**.
**--proxy**=__URL__::
URL of upstream proxy. For example,
**--proxy=http://localhost:8080/**,
**--proxy=socks4a://localhost:1080**, or
**--proxy=socks5://localhost:1080**.
You would normally control the proxy
using the **HTTPSProxy**, **Socks4Proxy**, or **Socks5Proxy**
configuration options in a torrc file, instead of using this option.
**--log**=__FILENAME__::
Name of a file to write log messages to (default stderr).
**--url**=__URL__::
URL to correspond with. The domain part of the URL may be modified
by **--front**.
**-h**, **--help**::
Display a help message and exit.
