The Socks 5 server part of iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6, using authentication. This is running on Sparc Solaris 7. I tried NEC Socks5 running on Solaris 8, without authentication and it worked fine.
I've never had a problem with the iPlanet Socks 5 server with any other app. I have a lot of people you use it with AOLIM, CuteFTP, SecureCRT, Sockscap and eBorder.
I also tested the client machine with as early as Mac OS 8.1 and received the same results.

Could you post the contents of the Fetch Transcript window after you get the error? Also, what SOCKS userid are you using?
Thanks,

Fetch 4.0.3 System 0x1023 Expires 02/01/2003 TR
Using SOCKS v5 gateway host: [insert proxy server here], port: 1080
Connecting to [insert ftp site here] port 21 (1/21/03 12:06:32 PM)I'm connecting using my Socks username and password.

It looks like the socks server is rejecting the connection, but it isn't clear why. Have you entered your SOCKS username and password in the Firewall section of Preferences?
Thanks,

Yeah, everything is setup right. It has to be a compatibility issue between authentication methods in Fetch and Sun's Socks 5 implementation. Here is the error I get from the Socks Server:
[23/Jan/2003:14:44:50] 718 debug: request from [insert ip here]:49360
[23/Jan/2003:14:44:50] 718 debug: auth: no auth offered by client is acceptable
[23/Jan/2003:14:44:50] 718 debug: auth: failed on [insert ip here]:49360Fetch is the only app I have this problem with. I have hundreds of people using a ton of different apps and this is the first time I've seen this.

Can you collect a packet trace of Fetch's connection attempt, and one from a client that works, and email them to support@fetchsoftworks.com? I'd like to see what Fetch is doing differently.
Thanks,

I get the same thing. SOCKS5 server, Mac OS X 10.3.9, Fetch 4.0.3 configured with the same settings as I use for everything else (iChat, MSN Messenger, etc), username and password entered into the proxy user id and password boxes, and I get "Error -1" when attempting to connect.
Transcript reads:
Using SOCKS v5 gateway host: [our server], port: 1080
Connecting to mirror.aarnet.edu.au port 21 (16/5/05 1:50:11 PM)Then nothing. Have also tried passive and non-passive transfers.
Tried the following to capture a packet trace:
sudo tcpdump -i en0 -s 0 -w ~/proxydump.txt port 1080... but I ended up with an empty file. Also tried tracing port 21, but still an empty file.

deejemon: Do you see anything in the packet trace if you connect with iChat?
Also, is built-in ethernet your primary network interface (i.e. does the Network panel of System Preference say that you are connected to the Internet via built-in ethernet)?
Thanks,

Yes, have a 24K file with a tcpdump from iChat.
Apparently I tell a lie - just re-did a tcpdump from Fetch 4.0.3 and didn't end up with an empty file; not sure what happened there, maybe I mis-typed the port or something. Will send to the support address.

I've found that Fetch 5 also does not handle SOCKS5 servers (with authentication) properly, having greyed-out username/password fields in the preferences when SOCKS5 is chosen.

Thanks for the report; we will try to fix that for a future release.

Seem to still be a few SOCKS5 bugs in 5.0.2. Still unable to enter a username/password when SOCKS5 is chosen as the proxy type, and Fetch doesn't prompt for one when it's trying to connect.

Jim Matthews Administrator
That's right, we did not add SOCKS 5 username/password support to 5.0.2. That's still on our list of things to do. Thanks for the reminder.

Not enabled in 5.1b1 either.

Or 5.1b3.

SOCKS5 also still broken in 5.1 full release version.

Hi,
I'm happy to report that Fetch 5.1.1 includes support for SOCKS5 authentication.
Thanks,
Scott McGuire
