Nylon socks server compiled and working

[Jean-Fabrice]

Hi all,

I've compiled the nylon socks server in order to run it on wl500g.

Here is the wiki page : http://wiki.wl500g.info/index.php/PackageNylon

BTW : as English is not my mother tongue, maybe this wiki page needs gramatical corrections. Sorry.

So you've got it working now! Great. Now you can use MSN @ work

I will review the WIKI page sometime today. Can you post a zipped file here (using 'attachment') with a compiled binary and the required libraries/modules. Thanks.

Hi all,

I've compiled the nylon socks server in order to run it on wl500g.

Why do you link it statically?

Why do you link it statically?

Hummm... because I'm a newbie and when I try to compile it dynamically and run it, it asks for libresolv... so I take the short way... static compilation

any help to compile it dynamically would be appreciate, don't know if i'tsd possible

BTW, here is the daemon

Remove -lnsl and -lresolv it is not needed with uclibc.

Fast and dirty patch:

Works ! Thanx Oleg

No way other than dirty patch against configure to tweak it at ./configure time ?

The simplest way is just adding libnsl.so.0 & libresolv.so.0 to /extra/lib/ and recompiling firmware.

[Jean-Fabrice]

ok. I'va updated the Wiki page.

Hi Jean-fabrice,

I don't have the platform to compile the code and I'm using the standard firmware 1.8.2.0. So, as suggested by Styno, could you provide a compiled version of nylon with libraries so I could run it from USB storage?

Statically linked version can be found here: http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=4572&postcount=4

Thank you for pointing out. How about adding it to the Download section in the WIKI page?

BTW, I've got it running but nylon show the following error message on the system log the first time I connecting to the socks5 port:

Dec  1 17:08:39  nylon[213]: Listening on my.router:1080
Dec  1 17:09:03  nylon[215]: bind(): Cannot assign requested address
Dec  1 17:09:03  nylon[215]: Negotiation failed

Well, its a WIKI system, you can do it yourself

Hi, I'm trying to set up nylon to run on my asus (fw 1.9.2.7-3b) which is located behind a ADSL modem from my ISP.

So downloaded and unpacked the tar on my USB stick. I made a nylon.conf file:

#Settings
[General]
# number of simultaneous connections allowed
No-Simultaneous-Conn=1
# log connections and other information to syslog? 1: on, 0: off
Log=1
# be verbose on the console? 1: on, 0: off
Verbose=1
# store pid file
PIDfile=/tmp/harddisk/nylon/nylon.pid
# server settings
[Server]
# interface to listen to connections
Binding-Interface=br0
# interface to bind outgoing connections to
Connecting-Interface=eth1
# listening port to bind to
Port=1080
# allowed is processed first, then deny
# allowable connect ips/ranges
Allow-IP=192.168.100.0/24
# denied connect ips/ranges
#Deny-IP=0.0.0.0/0
--------
And run with:
./nylon -c /usr/local/etc/nylon.conf -f -v

On my WinXP client I run FreeCap to forward HTTP to my router port 1080.
The client is on the LAN and the idea is (for testing) to forward from LAN (br0) to WAN (eth1). When I got this up and running I will setup a ssh tunnel.

This results:

nylon: Client 10.0.0.2 rejected
nylon: (192.168.100.225:3688 <=> my.router:socks) Terminated connection

I then added 10.0.0.0/24 to the allow list and got:

nylon: Listening on my.router:socks
nylon: connect(): Invalid argument
nylon: Negotiation failed
nylon: (192.168.100.225:3778 <=> my.router:socks) Terminated connection

So what is happening here? Is there something wrong in my config? Or is it my ADSL modem thats messing it all up? Do I have to open up something in iptables?

Any help would be appreciated!

Maybe this is not the right place but...

In fact, to connect from work, I need to go through a first proxy (and firewall that only lets port 80 available).

I would like to know if it is possible to configure MSN or something like that to go through 2 proxies (the first at my work and the other one on the Wl500g@home) !

Thanks for your advices !

I think you should read this thread again. The threadstarter used the Nylon socks server for just that!
