Further to this; having performed a network dump, here's what it's doing: 1) Standard DNS query for messenger.hotmail.com (returns 207.46.104.20) 2) It initiates a SOCKS Command 1 (Connect) to port 80 on 207.46.104.20 containing the following data payload: VER 1 MSNP9 MSNP8 CVR0 -- After which the connection simply seems to time out. 3) If using HTTP proxy *it doesn't issue a CONNECT at all*, instead simply sending the 'VER 1 MSNP9 MSNP8 CVR0' string directly to the proxy server (ie, it's braindead). Summary, the SOCKS code its using is somewhat braindead, the HTTP proxy code its using it UTTERLY braindead. For comparison, using gaim to connect an ICQ account with the same HTTP proxy settings works correctly and a network dump clearly shows the CONNECT command being executed against the proxy server, etc... It works if 'Use HTTP method' under 'Show more options' is ticked as of gaim-0.79-0.FC2. |
