need help with irssi socks
hi
How can i connect to the irc server through socks proxy with irssi? I have searched but didnt found any information about that. |
well...there seems to be (theoretically) a solution for you, by compiling irssi with socks support....was it like: "--with-socks" (without quotes)? I'm definetely not sure about this...
|
I just found this one with the aid of Google:
http://www.irssi.org/?page=docs&doc=startup-HOWTO try search the page with "SOCKS". that tells the same thing I wrote above..so I remembered right. try it out... |
well i have compiled it with --with-socks 0.8.9 version but i dont know how to specify that socks proxy ... or smth ... i cant find the documentation about using it.
|
Well there *are* no docs about that socks support.. when you compiled it in, you can somehow use it.. I don't know how.. guess you could play with proxy_string or proxy_string_after. I'm not so familiar with the SOCKS protocol.
I am using an HTTP/SQUID proxy with irssi.. . Settings look like: 12:11 use_proxy = ON 12:11 proxy_string = CONNECT %s:%d 12:11 12:11 12:11 proxy_string_after = 12:11 proxy_port = 80 12:11 proxy_address = proxy.onlyforme.net |
19:03:27 use_proxy = ON
19:03:27 proxy_string = CONNECT %s:%d 19:03:27 proxy_string_after = 19:03:27 proxy_port = 1080 19:03:27 proxy_address = proxy.socks.serv.com I have managed with these settings to almost ... connect to irc server... when i connect it says this : 19:04:40 !irc.dal.net *** Looking up your hostname... 19:04:40 !irc.dal.net *** Checking Ident 19:04:40 !irc.dal.net *** Found your hostname 19:04:40 !irc.dal.net *** No Ident response 19:05:17 -!- ERROR Closing Link: 0.0.0.0 (Ping timeout) 19:05:17 -!- Irssi: Connection lost to irc.le.lt I guess serv has to have ident server or no? It is strange couse i can connect with xchat to irc serv but irssi ends with error ... |
