I grabbed the ports-current/net/socks5 port (SOCKS5 0.16.6), and it compiled without any complaints (thanks, Doug). Now I want to recompile ssh 1.2.14 with SOCKS support. This is my ssh configure command line: ./configure --with-etcdir=/usr/local/etc \ --with-rsaref \ --with-libwrap \ --with-socks The configure fails with: [...] checking whether to support SOCKS... yes configure: error: Could not find the -lsocks5 library. You must first install socks. It is failing because the small test program references the "Rconnect()" symbol (it does, however, appear to find libsocks5.a). I've grepped all the files in the socks5 distribution, and there isn't a single mention of Rconnect or Rbind or Rlisten or any of the R* functions. The SOCKS FAQ even says to use these functions when socksifying a client. Am I missing some files that aren't included in the ports collection? -- Brian Tao (BT300, taob@io.org, taob@ican.net) Senior Systems and Network Administrator, Internet Canada Corp.
