Burp itself only supports proxying upstream to an http proxy.  If you want SOCKS, then you need to chain Burp to go 
through an http proxy capable of forwarding to a SOCKS proxy. That is why Iike using Privoxy.  I forward my Burp 
traffic to it, and then chain Privoxy through Tor.  You can substitute the proxies of your choice, but that is the 
basic idea.

amardeep : http is an application layer (7) protocol; while socks is a session layer (5) protocol. afaik paros supports 
only a layer-7 outgoing proxy.

Hello,

I am not sure for Burp Configuration, But on same lines If
you use Paros
Proxy (On same lines to Burp) then you can configure your
requirements
by going to Tolls-->Options--->Connection

Subject: testing webapp - socks and http proxy question

hello everybody, 

moderators : sorry about the cross-post, but i thoght this
question is
relevant to all these 3 lists. 

i am trying to test a web app which is accessible by only a
socks proxy.
so i want to redirect the http traffic through the socks
proxy to access
th webapp. the setup is: 

browser {OUT 127.0.0.1:8080} ---> burp proxy -->
socks proxy to webapp 

i am not sure how to make burp talk to the socks proxy. i
used
proxychains but i am not able to make it work. 

any suggestions are much appreciated. any other alternate
methods would
be nice. 

thank you, 
learner
