Hi there,I am coding a proxy (not something big, I just need it for a project)in Java, then I would have some questions about proxies : * Why does HTTP/FTP/SSL & co proxies exist since SOCKS alone coulddo all needed tasks ? * Can I force firefox (or anything else) that support both HTTP andSOCKS to use SOCKS for seeing web pages ? * Where can I find specs for doing HTTP/FTP/SSL/Gopher proxy ? * How comes that all proxy services are listening on the same port ?Does the proxy server bind to specific protocol proxy according towhat headers looks like ? Regards,Rémy
