NAME
       socks.fc - Frozen configuration file for SOCKS clients

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/socks.fc

DESCRIPTION
       The frozen configuration file is produced by make_socksfc and is essen‐
       tially the memory image of the parsed  configuration  file.  Using  the
       frozen  configuration  file  can reduce the start-up delay of the SOCKS
       client programs since they no longer have to parse the file contents.

       When the SOCKS client starts, it always looks for the frozen configura‐
       tion  file  /etc/socks.fc  first	 .  If that file is not found, it then
       tries to use the plain-text configuration file /etc/socks.conf. If  you
       use  frozen  configuration, you must remember to run make_socksfc every
       time after you modify the plain-text file or  the  SOCKS	 clients  will
       continue to use the frozen file of a previous configuration.

       To   find  out  the  contents  of  a  frozen  configuration  file,  use
       dump_socksfc.
