It calls torsocks or tsocks with a tor specific -configuration file. - -torsocks is an improved wrapper that explictly rejects UDP, safely resolves DNS -lookups and properly socksifies your TCP connections. - -tsocks itself is a wrapper between the tsocks library and the application -that you would like to run socksified. - -Please note that since both method use LD_PRELOAD, torify cannot be applied -to suid binaries. - -.SH WARNING -You should also be aware that the way tsocks currently works only TCP -connections are socksified. Be aware that this will in most circumstances -not include hostname lookups which would still be routed through your -normal system resolver to your usual resolving nameservers. The -\fBtor-resolve\fR(1) tool can be useful as a workaround in some cases. -The Tor FAQ at https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ might -have further information on this subject. - -When used with torsocks, torify should not leak DNS requests or UDP data. - -Both will leak ICMP data. - -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR tor (1), -.BR tor-resolve (1), -.BR torsocks (1), -.BR tsocks (1), -.BR tsocks.conf (5). |
