Subject: Socks proxy
Hey guys,
We're trying to use the Java Kafka client but it turns out it's not socks
proxy aware - the connect uses a SocketChannel that does not work with
proxies -

kafka - Mirror of Apache Kafka
Any ideas how to use the official Java client with a socks proxy?
MG>most installations wont pass SOCKS request directly to internal webapp(s)
MG>if you do pass SOCKS requests to webapp(s) ..you would need to configure
socks-proxy for ESB, SOAPserver, MVCApp and Kafka
MG>it would be less complex to FE all your webapps with dirt-simple NPM
proxy-agent (as part of firewall strategy)
https://www.npmjs.com/package/proxy-agent
MG>if udp is your requirement check out SS5 from sourceforge
