Hi,

Thank you for evaluating SOCKS64.

You are using the runsocks (libsocks5_sh.so) of SOCKS64 or
socks5-v1.0r10, right? These lack support of substituting
getaddrinfo() function to SOCKS version. In other words, you can't
correctly SOCKSify the application using getaddrinfo() by these
(socks5-v1.0r10 or socks64 based on socks5-v1.0r10) implementations.

I don't know if the latest SOCKS5 reference implementation
(socks5-v1.0r11) supports SOCKSifying getaddinfo(), but if it does, or 
if you could get or write some patches to enable SOCKSifying
getaddrinfo(), you should be able to use SOCKS64 with that runsocks
(libsocks5_sh.so).

Please note that SOCKS64 does not support UDP relay. Many applications 
such as ssh or w3m uses UDP only for DNS queries, which will be
eliminated if the application is correctly SOCKSified. However, if you 
need UDP communications other than DNS queries, SOCKS64 can't relay them.
You might try NEC's implementation
(http://www.socks.nec.com/reference/translator.html) for such purpose.

I'm afraid our 6bone connection is temporary down, so I can't test it
right now. It might be a bug of SOCKS64.
