After a few debug runs, wireshark trace sessions and kopete recompilations problem is found. Issue is visible when Kopete sends files to other clients (confirmed with Pidgin). According to Socks5 description on wiki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOCKS#SOCKS5) client should send greeting message (socks version, supported authentication methods) and server side sockets should respond to that with one selected method or error if non of is supported. Problem with kopete (at least without libjingle support) is that no matter Kopete acts as a client or as a server greeting message always show up in communication from kopete side. This in case Kopete is server side client like Pidgin after sending greeting messages expects to get two bytes (socks_version, selected_auth_method | 0xff) but it gets a kopete greeting message and this is interpreted as server selected gssapi authentication method (which even was not on cliend support list). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send a file to other client (checked with Pidgin) 2. Other side accepts Actual Results: Send operation fails immediately from Kopete side (in Pidgin console Socks5 session issue can be found). Expected Results: File is actually transfered Quick and dirty modification of protocols/jabber/libiris/src/irisnet/noncore/cutestuff/socks.cpp to prevent sending greeting message (in sock_connected) when SocksClient is on Server socket end helps and file transfer in both directions (Kopete <-> Pidgin) work.
My actual version of Kopete was 1.7.3 - from some reason it's not available in the list). Latest version on git master also have the same issue void SocksClient::sock_connected() { #ifdef PROX_DEBUG fprintf(stderr, "SocksClient: Connected\n"); #endif d->step = StepVersion; // This should send only in case socket connect to remote server(sockets connects du to SocksClient::connectToHost) otherwise no greeting message should be send. writeData(spc_set_version(!d->user.isEmpty())); // fixme requirement for auth should set outside }
Hi Lukasz! Kopete jabber code uses external libiris library for XMPP support. Due to compilation problems Kopete has unmodified copy of libiris in git/tarball. If there are any problems with libiris library, please report bugs to libiris project at https://github.com/psi-im/iris PSI jabber client uses same library, so please check PSI if has same problem as Kopete to determinate if problem is in library libiris or application. Also libiris library has xmpptest application for testing.
