C# need help debugging socks5-connection attemp
- by Chuck
Hi, I've written the following code to (successfully) connect to a socks5 proxy.
I send a user/pw auth and get an OK reply (0x00), but as soon as I tell the proxy to connect to whichever ip:port, it gives me 0x01 (general error).
Socket socket5_proxy = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
IPEndPoint proxyEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Parse("111.111.111.111"), 1080); // proxy ip, port. fake for posting purposes.
socket5_proxy.Connect(proxyEndPoint);
byte[] init_socks_command = new byte[4];
init_socks_command[0] = 0x05;
init_socks_command[1] = 0x02;
init_socks_command[2] = 0x00;
init_socks_command[3] = 0x02;
socket5_proxy.Send(init_socks_command);
byte[] socket_response = new byte[2];
int bytes_recieved = socket5_proxy.Receive(socket_response, 2, SocketFlags.None);
if (socket_response[1] == 0x02)
{
byte[] temp_bytes;
string socks5_user = "foo";
string socks5_pass = "bar";
byte[] auth_socks_command = new byte[3 + socks5_user.Length + socks5_pass.Length];
auth_socks_command[0] = 0x05;
auth_socks_command[1] = Convert.ToByte(socks5_user.Length);
temp_bytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(socks5_user);
temp_bytes.CopyTo(auth_socks_command, 2);
auth_socks_command[2 + socks5_user.Length] = Convert.ToByte(socks5_pass.Length);
temp_bytes = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(socks5_pass);
temp_bytes.CopyTo(auth_socks_command, 3 + socks5_user.Length);
socket5_proxy.Send(auth_socks_command);
socket5_proxy.Receive(socket_response, 2, SocketFlags.None);
if (socket_response[1] != 0x00)
return;
byte[] connect_socks_command = new byte[10];
connect_socks_command[0] = 0x05;
connect_socks_command[1] = 0x02; // streaming
connect_socks_command[2] = 0x00;
connect_socks_command[3] = 0x01; // ipv4
temp_bytes = IPAddress.Parse("222.222.222.222").GetAddressBytes(); // target connection. fake ip, obviously
temp_bytes.CopyTo(connect_socks_command, 4);
byte[] portBytes = BitConverter.GetBytes(8888);
connect_socks_command[8] = portBytes[0];
connect_socks_command[9] = portBytes[1];
socket5_proxy.Send(connect_socks_command);
socket5_proxy.Receive(socket_response);
if (socket_response[1] != 0x00)
MessageBox.Show("Damn it"); // I always end here, 0x01
I've used this as a reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOCKS#SOCKS_5
Have I completely misunderstood something here? How I see it, I can connect to the socks5 fine. I can authenticate fine. But I/the proxy can't "do" anything?
Yes, I know the proxy works.
Yes, the target ip is available and yes the target port is open/responsive.
I get 0x01 no matter what I try to connect to.
Any help is VERY MUCH appreciated!
Thanks,
Chuck
