Subject: how to configure a socks client?
User-Agent: Mutt/1.0.1i

Hello

I am behind a socks firewall and I need to be able to get past it.
I put the following line in my /etc/socks.conf file:
sockd @socks.domain.com 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
direct 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

Where domain.com is "changed to protect the innocent."

I tested the configuration by trying to do a ssh and a rtelnet
to a host outside the firewall.  Neither worked.

I'm not sure the ssh client will work anyway, but the rtelent should
have worked.

For what it matters, I can apt-get using proxy.domain.com and I can use
socks.domain.com with windows clients ok.

John
