SOCKS5 support #23

Open gjedeer opened 8 years ago

gjedeer commented 8 years ago

similar to -D in SSH

emdee-is commented 2 years ago

This would be really nice to have. But you might need to use OnionV3 addresses?

gjedeer commented 2 years ago

This is not tor, there are no onion addresses.

It's doable but a lot of work, I have half-written code for this that doesn't even compile yet, don't get too excited for this feature to be released soon.

emdee-is commented 2 years ago

There may be onion addresses in Tox soon to help deal with the vulnerability of so few BS nodes - it makes it really easy to take down.

Do you know about onioncat:

It may help if you ran Tox over it. It's been used for years, originally to run IPV6 circuits over TorV4. As it runs over Tor it would solve the SOCKS issue!

gjedeer commented 2 years ago

Oh, you're talking about acting as a SOCKS5 client, so tuntox can connect over tor. That's much easier to add, please open a new issue if you're interested about this. There's existing support in toxcore and I'd just have to expose it using a command line switch, or read the standard ALL_PROXY environment variable.

This ticket is about tuntox acting as a proxy server - similar to tor - and forwarding arbitrary traffic.

@emdee-is and by the way, have you heard about proxychains or torsocks?
