Hi,

I am trying to configure socks5 to provide streaming proxy services for
Quicktime4 and I always get an auth failure even though I am pretty sure I
have socks wide open...

Platform: FreeBSD 3.1, IPFW (wide open), IP aliasing still enabled
(although I have instructed qt player to use the socks proxy). (I left the
latter two enabled and functioning (to a degree), do they need to be
disabled, since the only thing that I really seem to need socks5 for is
QT4?)

The FreeBSD box has an IP address on a dial up connection, the rest of the
machines are behind it with a private network of 192.168.1.n/255.255.255.0

This error occurs for both Mac and Windows QT4 players.

My socks5.conf file:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
#
# Authentication entries

# auth - - n
# auth 192.168.1/255.255.255.0 - n

#

# route entries

route 192.168.1/255.255.255.0 - xl0

My perpetual error:
May 18 16:02:00 ppp-rich Socks5[41379]: Socks5 starting at Tue May 18
16:02:00 1
999 in normal mode
May 18 16:02:05 ppp-rich Socks5[41380]: Auth Failed: (192.168.1.2:2063)

Any hints?

Thanks,
Rich.
