Hi,

The following code is for a simpleWeb server. Can you please help me in modifying this code so that I implement a basic proxy that handles requests one at a time. When started,the proxy should open a socket and listen for connection requests on the port number that is passed in on the command line. For example, to start a proxy that is listening for connection requests on port 15213, you would type:
linux> ./proxy 15213
When the proxy receives a connection request from a client (typically a web browser), the proxy should accept the connection, read the request, verify that it is a valid HTTP request, and parse it to determine the server that the request was meant for. It should then open a connection to that server, send it the request, receive the reply, and forward the reply to the browser.

The following is the code for the web server:
Code:
