Hi, This is a tich off topic, I've been trying to setup the socks 5 daemon for about a week without any sucess. Strangely enough I can get ICQ to work now, but nothing else, believe I am getting authentication errors. I was wondering if you might be able to give me some pointers on a successful config file? It would be greatly appreciated. My "server" is 10.0.0.1 and the rest of the machines are on the same subnet.
