I'm wondering how frequently organisations use SOCKS5 as their web proxy protocol over, say, HTTP or authenticated HTTP proxies. Should an application even bother supporting SOCKS5 as an HTTP proxy? What percentage of organisations use SOCKS as a HTTP proxy? If you work in an organisation where you use SOCKS5, particularly authenticat...
I'm curious why is it more pervasive. Does it has a better API? I remember long ago when i first learned about NAT (i used it for sharing a dialup 14.4kbps modem), i thought that someday every home would have a router with NAT included, but it would "obviously" need also a SOCKS process to be able to open listening ports. When broadba...
Hi All I'm attempting to connect through a SOCKS5 proxy to a webservice. Currently, my app.config is as follows: <system.net> <defaultProxy enabled="true" > <proxy proxyaddress="http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy" bypassonlocal="True" /> </defaultProxy> </system.net> This works fine for http proxies, however it just doesn't connect to...

Hello, I am looking for a proxy server that can do this. If I set my firefox settings to that proxy, and go to google, then it should "proxy" to google normally. Just a normal proxy. But I want there to be rules. I want to redirect anything that matches http://google.com/... to http://12.34.56.78/... I was thinking about writing one ...
I am trying to create a SOCKS proxy in C++ that runs as a background process on localhost. If the user's browser is configured to use the proxy, I want all HTTP requests to be passed along through the normal TCP/IP stack. i.e. The browser will behave exactly as it normally would. Eventually I will add another layer which will check to ...
I have written an application that (amongst other things) runs a local service in windows that acts as a SOCKS v5 proxy for Firefox. I'm in the debugging phase right now and have found certain websites that don't work correctly. For example the Java Applet for Picture Uploading on Facebook.com fails because is is unable to lookup domain...
I'm looking for a java socks Proxy client class that supports authetication, any suggestions? The java.net.Proxy does not support authentication. Edit: I can't seem to find a way that would attach authentication data to particular proxy host via socket. Authenticator.setDefault() allows only one set of credential. Authenticator.s...
Hi, I'm looking networking help. I have a secure tunnel set up which gives me an http proxy on port 8080 and a socks proxy on port 1080. I also have ProxyCap installed which is configured to push all network traffic apart from a few exceptions through the socks proxy. Basically my problem is that if I try to run uTorrent with this met...

As seen here http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1929 , I would assume that it is either 255, or unlimited in length. What is the longest possible username and/or password you can use for authenticating a SOCKS 5 proxy? ...
Hi, I am developing a Java webservice application (with JAX-WS) that has to use two different proxies to establish separated connections to internet and an intranet. As solution I tried to write my own java.net.ProxySelector that returns a java.net.Proxy instance (of type HTTP) for internet or intranet. In a little test application I tr...
I would like to use different proxies instead of just one. Currently the ProxySelector sets a system wide proxy for all URLConnections. Does anyone know of a library that supports non system-wide proxies. Just something as simple as adding the appropriate proxy http headers/socks layers? ...
