I have tried to install socks5, and these are the facts:

I have a FreeBSD machine connected via ppp to the ISP, and a network of
other (win95, and winNT) machines connected on the local network... what
I get (through the debugging information and also tcpdump) is that the
request reaches the socks server and it resolves the address but does
not forward it through the tun0 device to the destination.

On the windows machine, the web browser says "host contacted. Waiting
for reply..." and times out after a while...

However, when I invoke a web browser from the FreeBSD box (thus
bypassing the socks server) everything works fine...

Can someone please help me fix this configuration problem?
