There are a few of things that you should check on:
1. Have you taken a look at the Event Log for any type of error or warning
messages? The service may have trouble with your configuration file location
or format.
2. Within Netscape make sure you are setting your SOCKS host to your server
machine. We did notice problems using Netscape 2.x, but Netscape 3.0 is
working quite well.
3. Make sure your socks5.conf has the appropriate permit line for your network?
4. set SOCKS5_DEBUG and SOCKS5_LOG_STDERR in the config file to see debug
messages on stderr on the Socks server which will give you a lot more
information about what is going on. You will have to start the socks server on
command line with the -debug flag so that it does not start as a service.
Hope this helps,
