Top-posting my reply rather than going point-by-point:

There is currently no support for using wanproxy with pcap-based
packet capture/transmit.  There is some pcap-related code there, but
not used by wanproxy at this time.  There are other projects that can
be used to transparently-proxy connections over wanproxy.

SOCKS support is an example under the heading "Proxying over a WAN
using SOCKS" on the website:
http://wanproxy.org/examples.shtml

If anyone has difficulty converting that example to something that
works on their network, please get in touch with me or the list and
someone will try to work with you to put together a working
configuration.  You'd need to include information about what details
you are having trouble with.  For example, when configuring a client
system to use wanproxy as a SOCKS proxy, we may need to know which
application or operating system you're trying to configure to use
SOCKS.

Thanks,
Juli.
