Subject: Patch to make SocksV5 work
The attached patch will fix wget so that it works
through a socks firewall. The client library
calls changed from the form Rconnect to the form SOCKSconnect.
In addition, it works with some pretty cute c preprocessor
token pasting techniques that must be seen to be believed.
If you don't need wget to get passed a socks firewall
then you don't need this patch. It is possible someone
has already done this, but not as of June 2001.
I'd like to get feedback on this because I only tested
it on redhat 7.1 against an installation of socks5-v1.0r11
If you need it and this fix does not work, let me know.
I'll try to fix it.
(See attached file: wget-1.7-socksv5.patch.sig) (See attached file:
wget-1.7-socksv5.patch)
Please note. This patch will break wget on those
libraries that expect a call to Rconnect and not
SOCKSconnect
