1 ProxyChains is a UNIX program, that hooks network-related libc functions
2 in DYNAMICALLY LINKED programs via a preloaded DLL (dlsym(), LD_PRELOAD)
3 and redirects the connections through SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies.
4 It supports TCP only (no UDP/ICMP etc).
6 The way it works is basically a HACK; so it is possible that it doesn't
7 work with your program, especially when it's a script, or starts
8 numerous processes like background daemons or uses dlopen() to load
9 "modules" (bug in glibc dynlinker).
10 It should work with simple compiled (C/C++) dynamically linked programs
11 though.
