Hi,
Seems it wants to run as user ID 101, so check your config files, whatever they are.
Run "grep 101 /etc/passwd" to see which user it wants to be, or change the config.
No experience with 'dante' though.
The user with id 101 is indeed the sockd user:
proxy ~ # grep 101 /etc/passwd
sockd:x:101:2:added by portage for dante:/etc/socks:/bin/false
So I guess it must be doing something with that user that can't be done...
Thanks for your help, best regards
Jose
