Hi BHW members, I want to host my own socks5 proxy in my ubuntu vps. I start using ubuntu yesterday and i try to set up my socks5 server but its not working.

Here is what i did.

I installed Ubuntu 15.10 x64 in my vps. When i boot my vps. Ubuntu start in terminal mode. I installed dante server with command "apt-get install dante-server". Then i configured dante server with by opening configure files with command "nano /etc/danted.conf" there i did few changes.

I uncommented following lines :

internal: eth0 port = 1080
external: eth0


method: username
user.notprivileged: nobody


client pass {
from: 0.0.0.0/0 port 1-65535 to: 0.0.0.0/0
}


pass {
from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
protocol: tcp udp
}


And saved it by pressing ctrl+x
then i restart dante server by command "/etc/init.d/danted restart"

And then i put my vps "ip address" and port "1080" in firefox socks5 proxy setting and clicked OK.

But its not working. Nothing is loading. Whats wrong i am doing. Please help
