If you make changes to the ssh-socks-proxy-config.xml configuration file the changes will not take effect until the SOCKS Proxy configuration is reloaded. After you have reloaded the SOCKS Proxy configuration, existing connections will continue to use the old configuration settings while new connections will use the reconfigured settings.
You can reload the SOCKS Proxy to the current configuration file by executing the following command:
> /opt/tectia/bin/ssh-socks-proxy-ctl reload
