Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

ProxyChains NG is based on ProxyChains. ProxyChains NG hooks network-related (TCP only) libc functions in dynamically linked programs via a preloaded DSO (dynamic shared object) and redirects the connections through one or more SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies. Since Proxy Chains NG relies on the dynamic linker, statically linked binaries are not supported. Adjust ~/.proxychains/proxychains.conf for your Proxy and use ProxyChains NG with proxychains4 application
