tor-resolve1
Resolve a hostname to an ip address via tor
Usage
tor-resolve [{-4 | -5}]
[-v]
[-x]
[-p
socksport]
hostname
[sockshost
[:socksport]]
Overview
tor-resolve is a simple script to connect to a SOCKS proxy that knows about the SOCKS RESOLVE command, hand it a hostname, and return an IP address.
By default, tor-resolve uses the Tor server running on 127.0.0.1 on SOCKS port 9050. If this isn’t what you want, you should specify an explicit sockshost and/or socksport on the command line.
