Honestly, socks 5 config can be a pain, but once you get it, it’s smooth sailing.
I use ProxyCap for testing—it’s great for routing traffic through your socks 5 proxy.
For auth, I’d say stick to basic username/password unless you need something more complex.
And yeah, always test with a site like ipleak.net to make sure your IP is masked properly.
