socks5hostname

This blog article explains using the `curl` command-line tool to bypass proxy settings with the `--socks5-hostname` option. This approach directs requests through a SOCKS5 proxy, resolving hostnames at the proxy, unlike `--socks5` which resolves locally. Useful for avoiding restrictive proxies or testing server connections directly, it enhances control without altering global settings. An example and script demonstrate this method's application.
