Proxy Connection Problems #394

Closed denppa closed 3 years ago

denppa commented 3 years ago

I always set up a proxy connection to my VPS with a command like this:

ssh -D 5050 -f -C -q -N user@ip.address

But then if I bind airdc to the local address and port, things don't work right and this pops up: https://i.imgur.com/rssbcGW.png

Browsing with the proxy and doing other things work alright, but it cannot load the file list of any person I try to connect to. On different hubs too. Any idea what problem / fix this could be or get?

Thanks for looking!

SOCKS5 functionality has been tested with Brook proxy server as it's one of the few ones that also support UDP traffic. It's rather easy to set up so you could check whether it changes anything.

But the problem still pertains, the file list won't load for some reason.

Could you test in the dev hub? adcs://web-dev.airdcpp.net:1511

denppa commented 3 years ago

Yes I did connect and tested it there. The file lists are always stuck in pending when I am using the brook proxy or just any proxy.

Alright problem is solved.

For anyone who is experiencing the same thing when using a proxy. Remember to also set up a port forwarding from the ports used by airdc to the port of the local proxy. That way stuff can go through.
