socks proxy for debian lenny? dante not works

Question

hello I need a socks5 proxy for debian with simple configuration. dante not working. p.s: I do NOT wish to use SSH tunneling.

note that lenny is EOL and no longer supported. It has well known security vulnerabilities that nobody is going to fix. It is recommended you upgrade to squeeze (by following chapter 4 of the squeeze release notes). — stew, Apr 13 '12 at 16:05

Dante on lenny seems to be a known issue. try

nano /etc/apt/sources.list (change "lenny" to "etch" )

apt-get update

apt-get install dante-server

nano /etc/apt/sources.list (change "etch" back to "lenny")

apt-get clean

And make sure you configured dante correctly (the default config should fail)

As an alternative you could use sockd, check out apt-get install socks4-server & man sockd

Or when v5 is a must take a look at tsocks
