Hey, I recently saw a video of someone ban avoiding ventrilo. In the video when he was banned he was kicked from the server but he rejoined without any problem as if he was only kicked. Is this program open to the public? (I can't just unplug my modem because I would have to walk downstairs a bunch of times during the middle of the night...something like this would be awesome.)

the ventrilo server adopts a strange method to handle the connections from banned address because these clients can connect (but only one connection at time and without a timeout in case of idle connection as far as I have seen) and send some data and after some bytes the server closes the connection after having sent a disconnection packet (0x59 in ventrilo 3.x).
in the meantime the server doesn't read/handle the data received because doesn't call recv().

a strange method, anyway ventrilo uses the tcp protocol which is also the most supported by the proxies and naturally by Tor and so there are no bugs or other interesting things involved, just a classical proxy to connect with a different (but limited to the number of available proxies) IP address.

Sorry to resurrect an old topic, but this is related to a problem I've been having. I used to be able to connect to Ventrilo servers using proxy firewall and Tor; however, now when I try (and my home network hasn't changed at all) to use Tor and connect to a Ventrilo server it sits and sits and finally times out. I remember reading that something was changed in recent versions of Ventrilo and now any old proxy won't do, you instead need a Socks5 proxy to handle the UDP packets. Whether or not this is true I don't know, I was wondering if you happen to have a program that might be able to help me out or if you have any ideas as to what may be causing these problems or any possible solutions.

yeah I talked about this in a post some weeks ago.
Tor is TCP only while you need a proxy supporting both TCP and UDP (socks5 with udp support) otherwise the UDP packets you send to the centralized server for the ventrilo 3.x authentication are authenticated for your IP and so when you contact the server with the IP of the proxy and the keys generated for your IP it doesn't allow you to join.
ventrilo 2.x doesn't have this problem because it's TCP only.

Thanks for the quick response, I must've not searched hard enough to find the post you made a few weeks ago. I've tried googling socks5 proxies with UDP support but what few I found that said they had udp support just kept timing out as before when i tried to connect to ventrilo using proxyfirewall / sockscap. In the meantime I've found a program called Pingfu UDP which has been working very well with ventrilo, only problem being I get the same IP from their proxy each time I use it so it won't last long... Do you know of any reliable sources for real socks5 proxies with UDP support or could you point me in the right direction to find one.

thanks for the help

p.s. do you suggest i use a program like sockscap or proxy firewall?

for the socks5 proxies I can't help because I don't use them so except than saying "search on google" I can't do more.

I have never tried proxy_firewall, while sockscap works fine

Alright, thanks for all the help.

Hi! :) Im in your spot right now, so i wanted to hear if u did find anything out. Im using Sockscap V2 changed to socks5 but still cant connect.. Can u help me ? :)
