SOCKS5 Problem
A couple weeks ago I moved my apache2 site to a new server, upgrading from Ubuntu 14.04 and PHP5 to Ubuntu 16.04 and PHP7. I used VestaCP to handle the install of apache as well as nginx, which wasn't installed on the previous server. Except for nginx and the updated OS and PHP, everything is virtually identical, and that's why I'm a little confused.
I've had a report from a user that they can no longer access the site via SOCKS5 proxy. Does anyone have experience with SOCKS5 and have any idea why my site might be blocking it? I didn't intensionally configure anything to block proxies. I've tried my VPN and it works fine with the site, so it seems limited to SOCKS5.
I did install iptables and fail2ban using Vesta, but I had those installed on the old server too.
Any suggestions or ideas that could point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

I think it's SOCKS5 proxy side problem and should be tested from there.

That's what I think too, but I find it odd it started happening immediately after we moved to a new server with the nginx configuration.skurudo wrote:I think it's SOCKS5 proxy side problem and should be tested from there.
I appreciate your input. Thank you.

Well, simple test will should resolve prob, you just need to know more about this socks proxy and make test.
