Hi. Please send feature requests to the Cygwin list, [email protected]. You
can read the list archive at https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/.

I just released socat 1.8.1.0-2 as a TEST release, with support for SOCKS4,
SOCKS4a, and SOCKS5. I don't have a SOCKS server to test those against, so
please install the test release, and test it with your SOCKS server. For
example, try

socat TEXT:'GET / HTTP/1.1\n' SOCKS4:socksserver:cygwin.com:80

Then post your results to the Cygwin list.

Andrew
