Description

ProxyChains is a UNIX program, that hooks network-related libc functions in DYNAMICALLY LINKED programs via a preloaded DLL (dlsym(), LD_PRELOAD) and redirects the connections through SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies. It supports TCP only (no UDP/ICMP etc).

The way it works is basically a HACK; so it is possible that it doesn't work with your program, especially when it's a script, or starts numerous processes like background daemons or uses dlopen() to load modules (bug in glibc dynlinker). It should work with simple compiled (C/C++) dynamically linked programs though.

Install

Channel stable v4.17-1

This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.

pkgman install proxychains_ng

Download version 4.17-1 (x86_64) hpkg

Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
