Hello Lars, The only problem is that the syntax is incorrect. To run the UDP relay in your delegate directory you should write: /var/spool/delegate/delegated -P4000 SERVER=udprelay://icq.mirabilis.com:4000 and for socks: /var/spool/delegate/delegated -P1080 SERVER=socks Be sure to set up the ICQ client to use SOCKS 4 because delegate does not support socks 5 yet.
