FAQ V1
Q: I don't want Cloak plugin!
A: Use this script.
Q: Cloak is too slow.
A: At first make sure that you have enabled BBR. Then if it didn't fix your problem, use iperf to measure speed of your server (TCP connection). You should not expect a speed higher than that.
Q: It's not connecting.
A: What a general question! Check these steps. If the problem didn't fix contact me through Telegram or open issue
- Check if
shadowsocks-server
server is running. If theshadowsocks-server
is running but you can't connect, check firewall. Also if you are using Windows as client, DO NOT use QR Code orss://
link. Read More - If not, run it again with
systemctl restart shadowsocks-server
. If the server keeps failing to start, continue reading. - If you are on Debian 8, most of the ciphers don't work. Check that you have chosen a compatible cipher.
- If the error is about "cannot bind on this port", check if the port you choose is currently in use or not.
- If the error is about permissions, open issue.
Q: Does this support IPv6?
A: I haven't tested this on any IPv6 machine. But probably yes. Because both shadowsocks-libev and cloak support IPv6.
Q: Is it safe to publish shadowsocks server?
A: Probably no. Government can block your IP Address by digging it from ss://
link. But it must be safe for private usage. Because to DPI, it looks like HTTPS traffic.
