Upstream Socks5/HTTP/(s) Proxy support

Open miltoncarpenter665 opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Let's say before connecting to OpenVPN that is installed on my VPS I have to supply a Socks5 proxy that my company gave me. like: socks-proxy 89.84.23.12:1080

How do I use my socks5 as a middle man before reaching Brook Wsserver?

On my VPS where Brook is install I ran: brook wsserver --listen :443 --password hello --path /ws

On my client I tried: .\brook.exe wsclient --socks5 127.0.0.1:9090 -s ws://my.vps.ip:443 --password hello --socks5ServerIP 89.84.23.12:1080

And then I got: lookup 89.84.23.12:1080: no such host

Now I'm confused as I thought --socks5ServerIP will be my upstream Socks5 (The one I need to my company gave me to access the internet)

My question is: How to make use of your upstream proxy on the Brook client, be it Socks5 or HTTP/(s) as a middle man before reaching Brook Wsserver ?
