Hello, I was teaching a coworker about SSH tunneling and wanted to demonstrate using a SOCKS proxy with command-line utilities that are not SOCKS-aware. I tried to demonstrate tsocks but it did not work properly out-of-the-box on Slackware64.
After a little bit of troubleshooting I figured out that the problem was an incorrect library path being added to LD_PRELOAD. The 'tsocks' command is adding the path '/usr/lib/libtsocks.so' when the library is actually located at '/usr/lib64/libtsocks.so'. It works fine if you specify it manually, eg: $ LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib64/libtsocks.so" ssh target_host proxychains works correctly out of the box. Also, it would be helpful if the tsocks.conf examples from the source directory (let alone the 'inspectsocks' and 'validateconf' utilities which are referenced in the tsocks man page) were included in the package. Thank you, Ben the Pyrate
