on a client, i opened a tunnel to the server,

	ps ax | grep "ssh -L"

i open firefox, setup to use the SOCKS5 proxy @ 127.0.0.1:1080, and can successfully nav to http://kde.org, where logs show the accepted connection,

	tail -f /var/log/dante.log

next, i open chatzilla/firefox, still setup to use the SOCKS5 proxy @ 127.0.0.1:1080, and can successfully connect to irc://irc.oftc.net:6667, where

	tail -f /var/log/dante.log

		...

finally, i open Konversation, setup to use the SOCKS5 proxy @ 127.0.0.1:1080, and attempt to connect irc://irc.oftc.net:6667;

the connection FAILS, where, at Konversation console,
