Socks doesn't have a notion of resolving. It only has a notion of connecting (well, and binding, but we don't use that). We hacked on our own notion of a 'resolve' socks request: https://svn.torproject.org/svn/tor/trunk/doc/spec/socks-extensions.txt and I'd be surprised if any other projects use our extension. --Roger
