Hi,

>>Subject: using delegate to put http authentication on top of a SOCKS proxy connection

To forward connections via a SOCKS server (at socksHost:socksPort)
with authentication (userName:passWord), add parameters as follows:

  SOCKS="socksHost:socksPort:*" MYAUTH=userName:passWord:socks

Cheers,
Yutaka
