 |
|
For SOCKS version 4.2 and earlier, SOCKSv4 clients MUST resolve local and internet host IP addresses. Configure DNS so that the SOCKS clients' resolver can resolve the addresses. Multiple DNS servers require special arrangements.
For the extended SOCKS version 4.3, SOCKSv4 clients can pass the unresolved addresses to the SOCKSv4 extended servers for resolution.
For SOCKSv5, the clients can pass unresolved host names to SOCKSv5 servers to resolve. SOCKS will work if the SOCKSv5 client or SOCKSv5 servers can resolve a host. |
