socks5_clients(1)

NAME

socks5_clients - Applications bundled with the socks5 distribution that have the socks5 library routines statically built in

DESCRIPTION
The socks5 distribution includes these statically socksified client applications for the socks5 environment:
    archie
    telnet
    ftp
    ping
    traceroute
    finger
    whois

Do not socksify these applications with runsocks.

To use applications that are not socksified, socksify them with runsocks, and create a socks5 library configuration file, libsocks5.conf. For additional information about dynamically socksifying applications, please refer to libsocks5.conf(5) and runsocks(1) for complete details, including setting environment variables.

You cannot socksify the ping and traceroute applications.
