I have a PC running cntlm. I am trying to use this cntlm as proxy from another machine. But cntlm listens on local proxy only.

Is there a way, it can work as proxy to external clients too?

The port is open on firewall. I can connect to the machine, which runs on another port, using telnet.

Actually CNTLM doesn't care if it's local computer or a remote one who wants to connect.

You just have to configure is properly. I suggest you implement this answer: How to configure CNTLM properly

    Thanks. The gateway option worked. Somehow not through the config file, but the -g option on command line. As documented here http://linux.die.net/man/1/cntlm – Paddy Aug 31 '15 at 16:58

    Indeed, to make `Gateway yes` work properly, you must ensure that there is at least one line in config file afterwards, otherwise it gets ignored by `cntlm`. The safest solution is to put some random comment at the end of the file. – bagage Mar 09 '20 at 14:51

    @bagage Thankyou for the trick. I've added a comment to the last line of the config file, in the answer. – ramazan polat Mar 13 '20 at 02:59
