Anyone here using a SOCKS server? I'm using ss5 but there seems to be a strange disconnect issue with it and openvpn. While I'm trying to figure out whether ss5 is at fault, or openvpn, I'd like to try a different SOCKS server. Could you recommend one that works well on CentOS?
If you can ssh to a remote machine then you can use the "-D" flag to make ssh act as a SOCKS server. That should, at least, get you something to test against.
Doesn't work at all. Perhaps openssh is only a SOCKS server for TCP protocols? OpenVPN normally uses UDP.
