I just tried this yesterday, and it works completely (as far as I can
tell). You just need to have a /etc/socks5.conf that looks like this:
noproxy 127. -
noproxy 192.168.0. -
socks5 - - socks5-server
deny - - - 192.168.0. - -
permit - - 192.168.0. - - -
The magic here is the "socks5" line between the "noproxy" entries and
the "permit/deny" entries. The socks5.conf man page says that order is
important! Anyway, what it says is that, for all connection types,
simply chain the connection to the named socks5-server host. It works!
I then configure ICQ to use my local masq-box as a SOCKS5 server (that
means ip_masq_icq goes unused), and all is well.
When I am connected through my personal ISP account, rather than to my
corporate LAN, all I need to do is remove the "socks5" line from the
/etc/socks5.conf file, and now my SOCKS5 server proxies directly to the
net. My /etc/ppp/ip-up script does this for me.
