Failed to connect to shadowsocks client

I've configured shadowsocks system by running ss-server on VPS and ss-local on my client machine. Then I made a simple SOCKS5 client which connects to ss-local and resolve SOCKS request using C. All work well, when I run ss-tunnel instead of ss-local, my SOCKS5 client can't connect to ss-tunnel.

TCP connection terminates as soon as it established. I'm not sure what is the proper reason.

ss-tunnel -c config.json -L <destaddr:port>

But it does when I run ss-local instead.

ss-local -c config.json

Below is my config file.

{
    "server":"xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",
    "server_port":443,
    "local_address": "127.0.0.1",
    "local_port":10800,
    "password":"xxxxxxxxxx",
    "timeout":60,
    "method":"chacha20-ietf-poly1305",
    "workers":8,
    "plugin":"obfs-local",
    "plugin_opts":"obfs=tls;obfs-host=www.google.com"
}

Is there any difference between protocols of ss-local and ss-tunnel? I know it's false, but anyway can't get it how they go wrong. Thanks.

Solution

  • ss-tunnel establishes a complete tunnel with ss-server, all traffic to ss-tunnel is directly relayed to ss-server without any SOCKS request/resolve processes. After I've removed SOCKS handshake in my client program, it worked properly.
