problem with proxychains


hi
i have a problem with proxychains.
in my university, we are only allowed to use internet through a proxy server. normally connecting to AP wont get me connected to internet.
as for surfing, this is just setting the proxy option.
but for games, mostly they dont have such options. the one i specifically want to play is teeworlds ( ).
i set the config file like this:
Code:
http 192.168.21.11 3128
a local squid proxy server (which i ran myself, it is not the official university proxy, this is a long story!) and the mode is strict.
so, i run opera like
Code:
proxychains opera
and when i disable proxy options in opera, it works and i can surf.
but when i run
Code:
proxychains teeworlds
i am not able to see any game servers.
the game works fine with a direct internet connection.
i first thought that the problem could be with ports, so i allowed all ports on my squid server (a guide here is appreciated, as i just commentec some lines in squid conf file regarding safe ports). still the problem is here.
so anything to help me?
thanQ
