I had successfully setup and used ssh tunneling through socks proxy right after creating droplet first time. It worked with both windows and linux. After a break i tried using my setup again and it didn’t work. I rebuilt droplet to start fresh and tried connecting from both win and linux, home and work with no success. I am using NYC server. Any ideas?

Have you verified that AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes instead of no in your SSH configuration? If so, what are you using to connect and what command(s) did you use for setup?
