Ok, so the SOCKS server runs fine.

SOCKS doesn't resolve names: you need to install a caching DNS on
the A4000: there are a couple on Aminet.

Then, on the A3000, put the ip of the A4000 in the resolve
configuration

 LM> I tried PINGing the DNS and it worked fine from the A4000 but the
 LM> A3000 would send the pings out but never receive a reply.

Ping won't work through SOCKS, nor will traceroute.
