This question is directed more for Charles but if anyone else any input
I'd be glad to hear it.  I've recently updated my LRP to Dachstein after
having Eigerstein running for over 6 months straight with a reboot.  I
got most of the kinks out with the setup after some trial and error.
The problem I'm having now is with socks5.  This was discussed way back
in the old LRP mailing list to get it to work with ICQ.  I'm using the
latest beta version of ICQ for the Windows platform.  I was running W2K
until I ran into a problem with ICQ crashing.  I just bought another
board and processor so I thought it'd be the perfect time to upgrade
everything and start from scratch along with installing WindowsXP Pro.
When I got to installing ICQ again, it would crash just the same after
about 30 seconds.  Having ruled out there were some corrupt files with a
clean install, I then tried some ICQ settings.  I took ICQ off from
using the proxy settings and sure enough it didn't crash.  So I thought
I'd reboot the Dachstein box.  It came up and now I'm once again
connected using the socks5 proxy via ICQ.  I have never had a problem
while using Eigerstein from the floppy.  The Dachstein box was running
only 9 days before I ran into this ICQ problem.  I'd hate to have to
reboot every week or two just to give it the quick fix.  I'm using the
socks5.lrp that was included with Dachstein but configured it according
to what I had from my previous socks5.lrp on floppy.  Here are my
configs:

Libsocks5.conf

socks5 - - - - -

socks5.conf

set SOCKS5_BINDINTFC 192.168.1.254:1080
set SOCKS5_NOIDENT
interface 192.168.1. - eth1
interface - - eth0

auth 192.168.1. - -

permit - - 192.168.1. - - -

Gotta love how Dachstein CD boots so fast.  At some point I may even dab
with the FreeS/WAN.  The only hardware I changed from the box was stick
in another PCI NIC to replace the ISA and the CD-ROM drive.  Now I'm
using OpenSSH rather than the obsolete sshd-1.lrp.  I just boot up from
CD and change the root password manually so I can ssh2 in since you
can't get in without a password for root which by default is no
password.
