Deluge CentOS 7 - PIA Socks5 Proxy

I am trying to use Deluge on my server that is running CentOS 7 with Deluge.
The problem I am running into is getting the Proxy to work right. From the logs it showed that the connect could go out but was not coming back in successfully.

I know it is not the proxy settings I have because I works on my desktop with the same proxy settings.

I think it may have to do with the ports but I have opened all that I can think of.

List of Ports opened in Firewalld

Code: Select all

1080/tcp 61000/udp 49152-65535/tcp 60000/tcp 62000/tcp 8112/tcp 60000/udp 58846/tcp 1080/udp 62000/udp 61000/tcp 49152-65535/udp 58846/udp
Any help or ideas would be awesome!

You do not need to open any ports to use a SOCKS5 proxy. Seeing the "No Incoming Connections!" warning is normal when using a proxy.

Unless you have other torrent clients on your LAN, you don't need to enable LSD.

You're not doing anything wrong and the issue is that socks5 proxies doesn't support incoming connection. It will work fine still however, and you can still upload through established outgoing connections.

I strongly recommend anyone using deluge with a socks5 proxy to get the ltconfig plugin and enabling the libtorrent options: force_proxy and anonymous_mode for optimal security.

Edit: Sorry, beaten by gderf :)
