Tor - Sock - Proxy

1. Install tor-stock-proxy with docker

Setup the proxy server at the first time

docker run -d --restart=always --name tor-socks-proxy -p 127.0.0.1:9150:9150/tcp peterdavehello/tor-socks-proxy:latest

If you already setup the instance before

2. Make sure it's running

You can using cmd docker logs for check it

docker logs tor-sock-proxy

Test Sock

curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 https://check.torproject.org

socks5 127.0.0.1 9150

For example, to forward traffic through our SOCKS proxy with ProxyChains prefix any command with proxychains like this (the -q is to ignore errors):

proxychains curl -q ipinfo.me; echo
