To do this, choose some way to + distinguish the applications -- have them connect to different + SocksPorts, or have one of them use SOCKS4 while the other uses + SOCKS5, or have them pass different authentication strings to + the SOCKS proxy. Then use the new SocksPort syntax to configure + the degree of isolation you need. This implements Proposal 171. + + o Minor features: + - There's a new syntax for specifying multiple client ports (such as + SOCKSPort, TransPort, DNSPort, NATDPort): you can now just declare + multiple ...Port entries with full addr:port syntax on each. + The old ...ListenAddress format is still supported, but you can't + mix it with the new SOCKSPort syntax. + + o Code simplifications and refactoring: + - Rewrote the listener-selection logic so that parsing which ports + we want to listen on is now separate form binding to the ports + we want. |
