Did you enable "SOCKS support" during the sh Configure stage?
It's disabled by default and I think you'd know if you need it.

I just did a

$ sh Configure
( chose defaults for everything except that I enabled threads )
$ make
.... (lots of output)
Everything is up to date. Type 'make test' to run test suite.

Or did you mean something else by "run make tool"?

See also the INSTALL file.

HTH,
Joost.

That's on debian testing/unstable, by the way.

Done!
When I firstly chose interactively installation, I said "yes" to enable
"SOCKS support".
Thanks very much to all friends.
