A question about using socat

[PiZZ4]

From what I've read and understand to create a  tunnel (or pipe, whatever) with socat through tor you use something like this:

Code: [Select]

socat TCP-LISTEN: SOCKS4A:localhost::80,socksport=9050
Is this the right way, or is there another way to use socat as a listing port for tor.


Edit: From what I just learn you cant send HTTP requests through port 9050 only 8118, so I was wrong from the beginning or I just looked up the wrong tutorial.
