Hello, I have been facing some problem getting my socks client configuration to work on a SLES PPC machine. The socks package (dante) is installed, and the dante readme/how-to on the net seemed to be pretty straight forward as to what has to be done for the socks client configuration. It says to just edit /etc/socks.conf and add the following paragraph route { from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0 via: <socks-server-ip> port = 1080 proxyprotocol: socks_v4/socks_v5 } I did that and tried but am not able to connect to the socks server in the network. Is there something else that I missed or overlooked? I am not sure if this is a PPC problem, since I don't have any X86 machine with SLES to test on intel. Any ideas or opinions will be most welcome.
