SC across a proxy without a repeater?

[andrago]

I searched in the forum, but always I find ways to use SC in a net that has a proxy to exit to the internet the answers are using a repeater.

Is possible to add the proxy settings in the SC configuration and that it will go across it?
Like
proxy: 192.168.16.2
port: 8080
user: user
password: password

Thanks

The design of SC doesn't include the code to interface with SOCKS 4/5 proxy server, thus it cannot use one to make an connection to pass through it.

However, with the aid of a SOCKSified tools, you can make this to be possible. You may use the tools like SocksCap, FreeCap, or Hummingbird.

See this message about the using of vncviewer with FreeCap, the principle is the same when using the SC.

Thanks,
I should make this use as simple as SC.
You know it can be scripted or something similar¿

Ok But take into account that most corporate proxy servers use simple http protocol, not socks 4/5. Only common HTTP.

I am just curious why this function to enter host, port, username and password is not available in ultravnc, comparing with most other applications which allow configuring proxy settings.

Would you consider adding such fucntionality?
Using external programs like *caps, putty is really frustrating ...
