etwas ausführlicher wird socks zB in den FAQs von socks5-os2-980512.zip (zumb Glück gibts ja os2.org) beschrieben:
Q1. What is SOCKS?
SOCKS is a networking proxy mechanism that enables
hosts in one side of SOCKS server to gain full
access to hosts in the other side of the SOCKS
server without requiring direct IP reachability. It
works by redirecting connection requests from hosts
in one side to hosts in the other side to a SOCKS
server, who authenticates and authorizes the
requests, establishes a proxy connection and passes
data back and forth. It has been typically used as
a network firewall which enables hosts behind a
SOCKS server to gain full access to the Internet
while protects unauthorized access from the
Internet to the internal hosts.
There are two major versions of SOCKS, SOCKS4 and
SOCKS5. David Koblas is the original author.
