Leveraging ProxyChains when SSH Tunneling requires some set up, and im curious about the why aspect
Given information: I have root access to a machine on ip 1.1.1.1 and open up port 22.

Given information: I have root access to a machine on ip 1.1.1.1 and open up port 22. Instead of having to log into the machine again through an exploit to get root access AND to not install apps onto their machine (If i created a reverse shell on the machine, it could get detected), figured to try a new approach; port forwarding and proxy chains. The idea I had was to set up a tunnel to the webserver and just forward the information along in order to start mapping out the internal network. I stumbled across proxychains, which is as simple as configuring the port, say 8080 in its conf file, then running commands: proxychains ifconfig and then proxychains nmap --script=discovery $ip There seems to be some configuration needing to be done before you can use Proxy chains and this is where I think *why?*. I will append below. So, firstly as root access on the webserver, I will open port 22 and make a user with admin permissions, say *jakefromstatefarm*. Then I will from my attacking machine do the following: ssh -f -N -R 2222:127.0.0.1:22 jakefromstatefarm@1.1.1.1 # Enter password for jakefromstatefarm ssh -f -N -D 127.0.0.1:8080 -p 2222 atkMachineUser@127.0.0.1 # Enter password for atkMachineUser Now I would use proxychains on port 8080 by editing the conf file proxychains ifconfig My question which confuses me is why do we need to set up these sets of tunnels prior to? Is it because of the required user credentials to speak to the different machines? That way, the machine will maintain the credentials and then from there proxychains doesnt need to maintain anything? I was confused because i was not sure why I couldn't in theory set up proxychains to use port 22 to talk to the webserver at 1.1.1.1 directly and run its respective commands. I am trying to make sure I understand SSH Tunneling correctly. I read a bunch of information, wiki pages and books, and while i vaguely understand some concepts, i dont have a warm and fuzzy quite yet. That being said, Id love it if someone could explain it to me like i am 5, or well, with less mumbo jumbo.

After some research, I didn't find any solutions. So I post here. **My goal:** redirected the HTTPs traffic from my custom program to BurpSuite in order to analyse the server response and debug my program. - I have Debian 4.4.3 - I have two network interfaces : eth0 and tap0, I work on tap0. - I have a php program that just send an HTTPS request to a local server (tap0). My php code use CURL to send the request (curl_init(), curl_setopt() etc.) In a debugging goal, I have thought to send my flows via BurpSuite in order to see the HTTPS requests. So: - I launch Burp that listen on all interfaces port 8080 - I configure /etc/proxychains.conf and in my ProxyList there are: socks4 127.0.0.1 8080 socks5 127.0.0.1 8080 socks4 XX.XX.XX.217 8080 socks5 XX.XX.XX.217 8080 And when I use proxychains: prochychains php myProgramme.php My program is executed but proxychains doesn't "proxify" the flow and so Burp doesn't see nothing... I think that's because I am in my local network ? What do you think about the best solution to intercept and see the HTTPS flows to my php program ?

Does ProxyChains use all proxies in dynamic_chain or just one?
Let's say, I have `dynamic_chain` set and have two proxies in the chain list: ```none [ProxyList] socks4 127.0.0.1 9999 socks4 127.0.0.1 8888 ``` Both proxies can reach the server `aa.bb.cc.dd`.

Let's say, I have dynamic_chain set and have two proxies in the chain list:
[ProxyList]
socks4  127.0.0.1 9999
socks4  127.0.0.1 8888
Both proxies can reach the server aa.bb.cc.dd. When I run the following command:
proxychains ssh aa.bb.cc.dd
How will be the route to reach aa.bb.cc.dd? Will it pass by 127.0.0.1:9999 and then by 127.0.0.1:8888 and finally to aa.bb.cc.dd? Or it will go directly from 127.0.0.1:9999 to aa.bb.cc.dd? Or it will go directly from 127.0.0.1:8888 to aa.bb.cc.dd? I am much confused about this. Can any friend show me what the actual case it is? Many thanks!

Proxychains not working behind proxy

When I run proxychains with proxy given by Tor, then my proxychains works fine, but when I run proxychains with the proxy through which I access the Internet (i.e. 172.16.24.4:3128), the proxychains don't work. Here's the sorts of errors I get: proxychains apt-get update ProxyChains-3.1 (http://proxychains.sf.net) Err http://dl.google.com stable InRelease Err http://dl.google.com stable Release.gpg Could not resolve 'dl.google.com' Err http://security.kali.org sana/updates InRelease Err http://dl.bintray.com jessie InRelease Err http://security.kali.org sana/updates Release.gpg Could not resolve 'security.kali.org' Err http://dl.bintray.com jessie Release.gpg Could not resolve 'dl.bintray.com' Please help. I am having this issue for a year and I couldn't find a solution. I think the problem is with DNS lookup behind a proxy. I don't know I have tried everything. Nothing works. One more thing. If I set http_proxy variable to 172.16.24.4:3128, then also some of my applications work, so there's nothing work with the proxy.

proxychain unable to resolve ip address

I suspect nothing is wrong with my proxychains because it runs on tor but not on 172.16.20.2:3128. 172.16.20.2:3128 runs fine on my browser so what prevents it from running on proxychains?

I am using Ubuntu 5.15.0-57-generic and I see many people have a problem with proxychains where they get this error:
"ERROR: ld.so: object 'libproxychains.so.3' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored."
I get the same error and the fix is easy to look up. I just need to change the relative path in /usr/bin/proxychains to an absolute path. It seems like everyone else has no trouble with this, but no matter what I do the file looks the way most bin files look when you cat them:
@@@#%^$@%^&@#@@@@@@
Like that, if you know what I mean. The only thing that I could do was to add export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libproxychains.so.3 to /usr/bin/proxyresolv but that did nothing. I have tried to change the files in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu that might be relevant: libproxy is a directory that goes deeper than I want to mess with so I left it alone; libproxychains.so.3, libproxychains.so.3.0.0, libproxychains.so.4, libproxy.so.1, and libproxy.so.1.0.0 all give me gibberish, and p11-kit-proxy.so gave me the crazy screen pic I attached just for fun because I have never seen it and can't get out of it no matter what I do. (Also, as you can tell from the above, I tried to just use proxychains4 when I saw someone say that it did not have this same issue with the relative path name, but no dice). Anyway, I would love to get proxychains working, but I would love just as much to know why other people can cat /usr/bin/proxychains and get a nice and clear and editable #!/bin/bash file while I get nonsense. Here is the main post that I was trying to follow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63081456/error-ld-so-object-libproxychains-so-3-from-ld-preload-cannot-be-preloaded enter image description here

I also had Tor installed and running while using proxychains. Here is the output of tor status:
root@kali:~# service tor status
● tor.service - Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (multi-instance-master)
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tor.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
     Active: active (exited) since Sat 2020-06-13 19:33:10 UTC; 3s ago
    Process: 13092 ExecStart=/bin/true (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
   Main PID: 13092 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

Jun 13 19:33:10 kali systemd: Stopped Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (multi-instance-master).

Jun 13 19:33:10 kali systemd: Finished Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (multi-instance-master).
However, if I type proxychains firefox www.whatismyip.com, I still get the same IP address again and this is the output of the command:
root@kali:~# proxychains firefox www.whatismyip.com
ProxyChains-3.1 (http://proxychains.sf.net) 
root@kali:~#
Any help is appreciated.

sqlmap -u http://192.168.0.106/get_method/get_data/?id=1 --dbs I know that if we sent any request to any server that server takes ip address of user(mine). So, while I am running the above source code server is getting my ip address. So, they can easily find me. ~ I am not sure of the information also. In Kali-Linux, there's something called proxychains.conf. I was trying to use that proxychains4 sqlmap -u http://192.168.0.106/get_method/get_data/?id=1 --dbs But, proxychains not working enter image description here I am saying that by [proxychains] Dynamic chain ... 127.0.0.1:9050 ... 192.168.0.106:80 <--denied. I am getting data by above code also but, not using different ip addresses ~I think I am not sure of it also. So, I want to change my ip address every moment when I works with sqlmap or any other vulnerability. I am totally Newbie.

how to enable proxychains globally?

I was running proxychains [this way](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/640536/449077) . I am getting different ip addresses each time. But, now the problem is when I run any application without that command (proxychains4 firefox) than I get my real ip address. So, I want to set dynamic ip globally. If I run proxychains than ip addresses should be change everywhere. In this [link](https://linuxhint.com/proxychains-tutorial/) they run nmap this way(`proxychains nmap 192.168.1.1/24 `) But, I want to run nmap(any application) without proxychains that's why I have to run proxychains globally but, how?

I use proxychains utility with firefox. I want to start the firefox profile twice, but with other proxychains parameters. But I can't, when I try to run the second instance of firefox with the same profile, it's just opens a new window of exiting session. I have tried this commands: firefox -P profile %u, firefox -P profile --new-instance, firefox -P profile --no-remote, firefox -P profile --new-window. Nothing worked. Hope for your help!
