Q3Test SOCKS Proxy Support
Steve Gibson
1
Graeme Devine has a new .plan update with word on the SOCKS proxy support now built in to the latest Q3Test. Here ya go kids:

SOCKS Proxy Support There are five cvars that control it. They are only settable from the at init time (from the OS command line).
+set net_socksEnabled 1
+set net_socksServer
+set net_socksPort
+set net_socksUsername
+set net_socksPassword
Please note that you use the address (name or IP number) of the SOCKS server (firewall machine), NOT a Q3ATEST server. The port number defaults to 1080, you should not need to change this. It supports no authentication and username/password authentication method (RFC-1929); it does NOT support GSS-API method (RFC-1961) authentication.

Steve Gibson is the cofounder of Shacknews.com. Originally known as sCary's Quakeholio back in 1996, Steve is now President of Gearbox Publishing after selling Shacknews to GameFly in 2009.
