Description-en: proxy chains -- shared library (runtime)
Proxy chains force any tcp connection made by any given tcp client
to follow through proxy (or proxy chain). It is a kind of proxifier.
It acts like sockscap / premeo / eborder driver ( intercepts TCP calls )
.
See 'proxychains' package for more detailed description.
.
This package contains runtime for the shared library used by proxychains.
.
The package 'dnsutils' is needed to perform DNS requests through proxy. In the
case you turned 'proxy_dns' option off in configuration file you don't need
dnsutils to be installed.
