How to become Anonymous in Termux What is proxychain How to use it

 

Hello Learners Do you want to be anonymous on the internet while you are doing cyber security scanning through Termux if yes then you are in the right placeIn this article you will going to learn about proxychains like what is proxy change how to setup it on the Termux so that you can mask your IP address or your identity in the internet let me explain it to you how 

What is Proxychains ?

Proxychains is Linux Command Line Tool that hide your IP address and mask your identity over  the internet  One thing is important whenever you try to use this command line tool that forces a programs TCP connections to go through one or multiple proxy servers such as socks4 or  socks 5 one thing is you need to understand proxy chains only works only for TCP  connections not for udp 

So are you excited so let's start 

First we need to open our Termux now we have to run these two commands one by one for updating and upgrading our Termux packages for Environment setup

apt update

apt upgrade

If you want to use proxychains in your Termux u have to use this command to download tor Frist because tor is that one tool that will going to hide your IP address run this in Termux

apt install tor  -y

Okay now we are almost ready for proxychains but before we need to install it in Termux so for that run this command in Termux

apt install proxychains-ng

after installing proxychains we need to configure some changes in its configuration file so for that we need to open this proxychains.conf file for this run this command to go to the etc directory

cd   /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc

Now we are in etc directory now do ls to see what's inside in this etc directory there you can see a configuration file named proxychains.conf in this file we need to do some changes so let's open it by running this command we will going to open it through Nano editor 

nano proxychains.conf

In this proxychains.conf we have to make some changes like this search a line there in starting u can see written line strict_chains Just close it by using # like this 

Now in another another part we have to open dynamic_chain now search for the line dynamic chains now there you can see # before dynamic Chains Just remove it like this 

Now we need to do the last part go to the bottom line and add this line there like this socks5  127.0.0.1 9050

Now all parts are done just save it using ctrl + s and den exit that configuration file using ctrl + x now type this line to move on to home directory in termux

cd ~

or cd $HOME

Now everything is set now if you want to use proxychains u need to type this command in Termux 

tor

using this command we are activating tor to mask our ip address it is important to know before you do anything by using proxychains you must have to see clearly that tor circuits 100% completed otherwise it won't work 

now the last part We need to use proxychains for anonymity in Termux for example if u want to know your ip address  Just simply type this command in Termux

Curl ipinfon.io

After typing that command you will going to get your IP address information on your Termux screen like this Now if you use same command with proxy chains tools u will going to see not proper information about your ip address let's see 

proxychains4 curl ipinfo.io

So now congratulations now you know how to use proxychains in Termux but remember before using proxychains you need to turn on tor and one more thing if you want to use proxychain before any type scanning just Frist type the command proxychains4 then you do what you want to do
