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: ... 06/11 20:45:14.01 [11981] 0+0: --INITIALIZATION DONE-- 06/11 22:03:08.61 [12264] 1+0: -- Fork(SequentialServer): 11981 -> 12264 06/11 22:03:08.89 [12264] 1+1: {R} *1 q=0,a=1, s=1,r=1 (0s) 06/11 22:03:09.09 [12264] 1+1: (0) accepted [36] -@[65.27.82.34]CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com:16394 (0.485s)(1) 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 06/11 22:03:09.20 [12264] 1+1: default netmask 65.27.82.34/. = FFFFFF00 06/11 22:03:09.20 [12264] 1+1: ## hostIFto 65.27.82.34 < 192.168.0.120 (ffffff00) 06/11 22:03:09.21 [12264] 1+1: E-P: No permission: "CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com" is not allowed 06/11 22:03:09.21 [12264] 1+1: disconnected [36] -@[65.27.82.34]CPE-65-27-82-34.mn.rr.com:16394 (0.609s)(0) 06/11 22:03:39.24 [12264] 1+1: StickyServer done [acceptFailed] 1 req / 1 conn / 31 sec 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?
