• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

proxychains needs this patch to work correctly with the latest glibc (__libc_connect changed to __connect)

proxychains glibc fix

[Comment 2 SpanKY 2004-10-22 16:58:26 UTC]

why does proxychains even need the internal name ?
why cant it just use connect() ?

[Comment 3 Ali Sabil 2004-10-25 03:44:19 UTC]

simply because it substitutes the glibc connect with it's own, in order to anable transparent proxifying, at least i think so

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2004-11-15 21:12:37 UTC]

i just built proxychains on 2.3.4.20040808, 2.3.4.20041021, and 2.3.4.20041102

didnt fail to build for me

as for the transparent proxy thing, that's not how you make proxies transparent (you use iptables + some redirect rules)

[Comment 5 liuspider 2005-03-12 12:28:19 UTC]

the patch is required for proxychains to work

without it, it compiles, but complains the __libc_connect can not be found

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2005-03-12 12:38:14 UTC]

use 2.1-r1
