I installed danted on ubuntu 22.04.1 with apt package manager and everything worked find 'till I tried to connect to it.

this my /etc/danted.conf

logoutput: /var/log/socks.log
internal: ens160 port = 110
external: ens160
clientmethod: none
socksmethod: username
user.privileged: root
user.notprivileged: nobody

client pass {
        from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
        log: error connect disconnect
}
client block {
        from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
        log: connect error
}
socks pass {
        from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
        command: bind connect udpassociate
        log: error connect disconnect
        socksmethod: username
}
socks block {
        from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
        log: connect error
}

and this is systemctl status danted.service output:

but when I try running curl curl -x socks5://danteduser:<user pass>@<my server ip address>:110 google.com, I get this: curl: (97) Unable to receive initial SOCKS5 response.

journalctl -l | grep danted outoput (for last systemctl restart danted):

Sep 28 10:08:31 ubuntu20 systemd[1]: Stopping SOCKS (v4 and v5) proxy daemon (danted)...

Sep 28 10:08:31 ubuntu20 systemd[1]: Started SOCKS (v4 and v5) proxy daemon (danted).

Apparently port 110 is not even open, When I try telnet <server ip> 110 on my local machine, I get this:

Trying <server ip>...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: No route to host

This is /var/log/socks.log file content after starting the service:

Sep 28 11:58:44 (1664353724.536076) danted[8351]: info: Dante/server[1/1] v1.4.2 running

no new log in this file after sending curl request!
