Can I use port 8080 for SOCKS proxy? Port 1080 is not open in the
firewall I need to go through.

You are correct about the connection error. I had a friend outside my
internal network attempt to connect, and he recieved the error: "Error
while talking to firewall". In DeleGate log I see:

...

I think there are several problems. Is DeleGate still watching port
1080? I think so because of this:

06/11 22:03:09.15 [12264] 1+1: PATH:
socks://-:1080!192.168.0.120:8080!CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com:16394!anonym
ous@CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com;1055386989

Is connecting ip causing connection failure? From here:

06/11 22:03:09.21 [12264] 1+1: E-P: No permission:
"CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com" is not allowed

If you want to see it, initialization output follows. Thanks for you
help!

Usually the port number 8080 is used for HTTP proxy, and the standard
port number of SOCKS protocol is 1080.

What the DeleGate put to the consolse when the error occurred? What
program say so, "unable to connect to firewall"?  The message seems not
to show the authentication error but connection level error.

Cheers,
