Proxychains not working as expected

---

Hi Daniel,

I am watching your CEH V10 course. I am thoroughly enjoying the content, keep doing the great work. Btw I was following the Proxychains video and even after following you word to word I wasn't able to achieve the same result. Then I also tried to change few parameters but still no luck. Can you please have a look at my configuration and head me in the right direction.

that is my configuration (see image 1)

and this is the output in terminal (see image 2), it stops and doesn't keep running and the IP add also remains the same. :(

what you think I am doing wrong?

Regards
Shahbaz

Hi Daniel,

Had an update, it is working now. It took some time but all good now.
just wanted to ask if the process of proxy chaining depends upon how many proxy server addresses we add in conf file or even by adding just one it will go over many servers?

Hey @Shahbaz-Khan

Glad to hear you got proxychains to work. It is my understanding that you have to enter the proxies that you wish the proxy traffic through.

From the proxychains github README...

To use two (or more) proxies in chain:
like: your_host <--> proxy1 <--> proxy2 <--> target_host

I hope that helps,
Daniel
