Subject: compatibility with ss5 server
I don't think this is actually a bug, but a little enhancement. I'm using ss5(http://ss5.sourceforge.net/) as my SOCKS5 server, and Net::SOCKS as its connection client. But there's a little difference between them in dealing with SOCKS request packet, which makes it impossible to make them communicate with each other. ss5 reads request TCP packet just once, but Net::SOCKS sends the request into two separate TCP packets. (Net/SOCKS.pm line 418~419) If Net/SOCKS.pm is tuned just a little like below, I think the compatibility problem would disappear. I don't think it's Net::SOCKS's bug, but PERL is much easier and clearer to modify than C anyway. :-) BEFORE: (line 418~419) Show quoted text
