socks5 PASV checkbox dimmed

mhe · 03-15-2002, 05:17 AM

I have some sites that cannot accept PASV mode, and i use socks5 server to connect.
Thing is in FlashFXP you cannot uncheck the PASV mode box if you use socks5. At first i thought this was the way socks5 works (only PASV).
But then i tried wincommander, and there you can connect active (PORT) even if your using sock5.

socks5 is damn useful, since i have 2 internet connections i can download with the fast conn and play CS with the other

Not something you desperately have to fix.. just asking why this is

FlashFXP doesn't provide full support for socks5, it does not support non-passive mode when using socks5. This is one of those things, I keep telling myself I need to do, but something new comes up and I never get around to it.

In newer versions of FlashFXP the passive mode checkbox is not dimmed, but unchecking it will bypass the socks5 proxy.

OK just checking!

Keep up the good work
