Problem with socks proxy #12

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Configure a socks proxy at 127.0.0.1:7070 (port probably doesn't matter)
1.1. maybe other proxies will produce this error too

2. Make chrome use that proxy
3. See the ip lookup fail...

Screenshot is attached.

Just tested another proxy.
IPvFoo will always show the proxy ip address.

Correct, this is a duplicate.

IPvFoo doesn't show these IPs because Chrome isn't providing them, and for most 
proxies, Chrome doesn't know the IP address either.  There might even be 
caching-related scenarios where the proxy itself doesn't know.

Theoretically, I could send all the domain names to a remote HTTP->DNS gateway 
for resolution, but that would be icky, both for technical and privacy reasons.
