proxychains not working
hi peeps!!
i am having troubel chaining proxies. i get to the point of [ProxyList] # add proxy here ... # meanwile # defaults set to "tor" socks4 127.0.0.1 9050 socks5 94.50.6.16 1080 then i open a new terminal and run proxychains firefox then all i get is ProxyChains-3.1 (http://proxychains.sf.net) mainuser@mainuser-VirtualBox:~$ firefox opens but when i google my ip address it is not what it says in the list. sometimes i get something like ProxyChains-3.1 (http://proxychains.sf.net) [s-chain] ><-127.0.0.1:9050-><-ip.address:port>< timeout this is so irritating any help would be greatly appreciated thank you drbob |

ip address
when firefox opens and i type in google "what is my ip address" it is different than 94.50.6.16 1080

If it shows not your IP it means that tor proxychains works. If you want to connect directly through 94.50.6.16 1080 then comment socks4 line,otherwise your firefox goes through socks4. Or check in firefox options whether button "SOCKSv5" selected.
Wait! Did I get you right, you're trying to use tor as http proxy? It won't work. Maybe there is a reason to use tor+privoxy instead and point your firefox on 127.0.0.1:8118? |
no i am not using tor as an http proxy. i want to connect as a chain using tor as the first and the proxy as the second
