Andrew's Status Report - #5 of 17

[Andrew Jason Farabee <afarabee () uci edu>]

Accomplishments:
* I am done coding an nsock socks4a proof of concept, but I'm still dealing
with a Makefile issue. I hope to test/debug it later tonight.
    - Currently uses nse->nsi->hostname to access hostname for initial
packet
    - Currently does not support proxy chains (this should be a quick fix)
    - I should have it committed to nmap-exp/pasca1/nmap-nse-socks4a
tomorrow

Priorities:
* Get proof of concept compiled
* Test basic functionality, check that safe_zalloc is still memory safe
with valgrind
* Look into how/when nsi_set_hostname sets nse->nsi->hostname that the POC
uses
* Code an alternative way to access hostname from within nsock as needed
* Discuss design details for avoiding hostname resolution when using socks4a
* Clean up socks4a code for better functionality (IP addresses, proxy
chains, etc.)

I hope everyone is doing well!

Andrew
