[Software] socks4 or socks5 about proxychains?

#1 Post by hthi »

debian 11
proxychains v3.1

proxychains.conf file default socks setting
is socks4 127.0.0.1 9050
Is socks5 not what you should select? Or about various programs
you should select socks4 over socks5?
You cannot have both socks4 and socks 5
enabled in the proxychains.conf
file?
Thanks.

As this is a tool common to the Unix family, you might have more luck somewhere like StackExchange, where a proxychains question received 18k views, as opposed to 171 here.

The question would probably have been better posed in System and Network Configuration, as it isn't really a beginners issue. This post will give it a bump anyway. Maybe somebody familiar with the tool will spot it and give you an answer. Otherwise try the advice above.
