Socks4 support #9

Closed chromer030 closed 3 years ago

chromer030 commented 4 years ago

Hi , thanks for this great tool. How we can use socks4 proxies via this tool ? can any support be added ?

thanks again.

xjasonlyu commented 4 years ago

Socks4 protocol doesn't support UDP proxy, so it's not really useful.

chromer030 commented 4 years ago

For some purposes that only TCP protocol matter , using socks4 is really great and the number of Socks4 proxies is very large than socks5. if it's possible please add socks4 as an option. Thank you.

Since SOCKS4 only support TCP protocol, you have to take DNS and other UDP traffic carefully while FakeDNS only works on A type record.

chromer030 commented 4 years ago

For covering DNS we are using SOCKS 4A extensions ( remote hostname resolving feature ).

xjasonlyu commented 4 years ago

I know, that's what FakeDNS does, get your requested domain then forward via socks, but other DNS record type like TXT would fail.

chromer030 commented 4 years ago

So isn't there any chance to have support it on tun2socks ???

xjasonlyu commented 4 years ago

Maybe later, I'll consider add socks4 as compatible proxy support when I have enough time.
