proxychains-to-socks

Description

This project deploys a SOCKS5 proxy (microsocks) that routes traffic through a proxy chain (proxychains4). Everything runs in Docker containers.

Note: The base image debian:bookworm-slim is used instead of Alpine. This is because glibc (used in Debian) may provide better performance than musl (used in Alpine), and this choice was made in advance to avoid potential limitations.

Quick Start

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Allespro/proxychains-to-socks.git
   cd proxychains-to-socks

2. Configure your proxy chain in proxychains.conf.

   • By default, traffic goes through Tor (see example in the file).

3. (Optional) Configure Tor bridges in tor-bridges.conf if you use Tor.

   • The tor service is provided as an example; you can use your own Tor or any other SOCKS5 proxy.

4. Start the services:

   docker-compose up -d

5. The SOCKS5 proxy will be available at localhost:8888.

Main configuration files

• proxychains.conf — proxy chain configuration.
• tor-bridges.conf — Tor bridges configuration (if using Tor).

Stopping

docker-compose down
