- .SH NAME
- .LP
- torify \- wrapper for tsocks and tor
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- \fBtorify\fP\ \fIapplication\fP\ [\fIapplication's\ arguments\fP]
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- \fBtorify\fR is a simple wrapper that calls tsocks with a tor specific
- configuration file.
- tsocks itself is a wrapper between the tsocks library and the application
- that you would like to run socksified.
- Please note that since tsocks uses LD_PRELOAD, torify cannot be applied
- to suid binaries.
- You should also be aware that the way tsocks currently works only TCP
- connections are socksified. Be aware that this will in most circumstances
- not include hostname lookups which would still be routed through your
- normal system resolver to your usual resolving nameservers. The
- \fBtor-resolve\fR(1) tool can be useful as a workaround in some cases.
- The Tor FAQ at https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ might
- have further information on this subject.
- .SH SEE ALSO
- .BR tor (1),

- .BR tsocks.conf (5).
