Switchyomega: remote DNS for socks5 proxy?

Created on 30 Aug 2016  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: FelisCatus/SwitchyOmega

Remote DNS is really helpful.
But SwitchyOmega does not support it.
So I can't use it.

I remember that socks5 already support DNS which socks4 does not.

PS.
in default settings, Chrome enabled the DNS preload and cache. If your browser already sent the DNS request before apply the proxy, the 'wrong' DNS result will be cached. Please disable it in the Chrome settings.

Remote DNS is already supported by Chrome. There's one particular issue that you wish to learn more about in order to ensure fully predictable remote resolution: https://github.com/FelisCatus/SwitchyOmega/wiki/DNS-and-SOCKS-proxy
