Also, ultrascan doesn't benefit (or suffer? :) proxy support as it doesn't use nsock. That would be something to implement. A chain is expressed as a comma-separated list of URLs. e.g.: "http://localhost:8080,socks4://someproxy.example.com". Such a chain can be passed to nmap via --proxies <chain>. The chain is parsed once and reused everytime a nsock pool is instanciated by nmap. Authentication is not supported. As agreed before[1], I aim to first validate the core layers. refguide is also not updated yet, though I have no excuse for that. :)Can you add this to the refguide? This is among the cooler new features in Nmap 6.40, but folks won't know about it if undocumented. It should probably be added to the Nmap usage screen too if you can figure out how to do so without taking up many lines. Cheers, Fyodor (who, as you can probably tell, is working on the Nmap 6.40 release notes)
Hello, I was initially thinking that the proxy feature should remain undocumented until it gets more complete (no mroe DNS leak, proper SSL support, usable for port scan). I changed my mind and will document the feature so that people can understand these limitations and test (and improve!) it.
