Though I have *finally* succeeded in actually getting dante-server --a.k.a., socks5-- to start I continually get an error regarding the IP addresses I am attempting to use. The network is on 192.168.xxx.xxx & I never know what the IP address will be for my ISP until I dial into same. So... I am really puzzled what should be in the place of 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' in the following part of my config file: == # The server will bind to the address 10.1.1.1, port 1080 and will only # accept connections going to that address. internal: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port = 1080 # Alternatively, the interface name can be used instead of the address. #internal: eth0 port = 1080 # all outgoing connections from the server will use the IP address # 195.168.1.1 external: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx == I am a little concerned about the 'method' area, as well, since sockd seems to have been compiled w/o libwrap ...and there seems no available source.
