I have 2 machines, on win98 machine running wingate (192.168.1.1), and a = freebsd machine running 3.2-RELEASE (192.168.1.2). Wingate is running succesfully as an http and ftp proxy, yet I can't = seem to get any IRC client to use the wingate machine as a socks5 = server... On the freebsd machine i have win98 dualbootable installed, = and i have MIRC installed, and it works through the wingate machine, = specifying 192.168.1.1 as a socks5 server, so wingate (seems to be) = setup correctly... I installed the socks5 port, but that just seems to be a socks5 SERVER = component, and doesn't enable my IRC clients to use the wingate machine = as a socks5 server... Am I missing something? Does BSD have socks5 support by default? Is = this an IRC client shortcoming? Or should I rather stick to DOS? :) Thanks Aubrey Kilian (in ZA) ------=_NextPart_000_0047_01BEAFA0.465ED200 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Hi All,
 
I've scanned the archives, and can't = seem to find=20 anything...
 
This probably also belongs in = freebsd-newbies, as=20 this is possibly a trivial thing to do...
 
I have 2 machines, on win98 machine = running wingate=20 (192.168.1.1), and a freebsd machine running 3.2-RELEASE=20 (192.168.1.2).
 
Wingate is running succesfully as an = http and ftp=20 proxy, yet I can't seem to get any IRC client to use the wingate machine = as a=20 socks5 server...  On the freebsd machine i have win98 dualbootable=20 installed, and i have MIRC installed, and it works through the wingate = machine,=20 specifying 192.168.1.1 as a socks5 server, so wingate (seems to be) = setup=20 correctly...
 
I installed the socks5 port, but that = just seems to=20 be a socks5 SERVER component, and doesn't enable my IRC clients to use = the=20 wingate machine as a socks5 server...
 
Am I missing something?  Does BSD = have socks5=20 support by default?  Is this an IRC client shortcoming?  Or = should I=20 rather stick to DOS?  :)
 
Thanks
