add SOCKS5-hostname proxy

Open nyxnor opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The hostname must be resolved by the proxy for .onion domains, else it will fail to connect and leak DNS requests.

Can this be added to this network stack?

The network package is a low level library. I think that SOCKS stuff should go to the socks package.

Which repo would that be please? This socks package (git) seems to be have stopped 2019.

Yes, that repo. If you have motivation for SOCKS, I think you could ask the author of socks to transfer it to you.
