Hi all,

 

I'm trying to configure Hummingbird Socks 8.00 to do authentication and
hostname resolution for simple HTTP and maybe some other TCP based
traffic (the SOCKS server doesn't support UDP associate, nor bind
commands). I can't just use a straight through SOCKD5 server, since the
socks server is also a firewall. My socks.cfg looks like the following:

 

PROXY-NAME @=192.168.1.1:9001

 

The problem is that IE doesn't seem to perform any lookups through the
socks shim - it just goes straight to showing "The page cannot be
displayed" with the status message "Cannot find server or DNS Error".

 

Is there something else I'm supposed to do to get this to work?

 

Thanks for your help,

            Richard
