However I suggested Whonix because I believe it is less likely to leak your real IP address than anything else and that includes Tails. 100% anonymity is impossible but whonix is pretty good. It's not for everyone because it may involve changing operating systems but I thought it was worth mentioning.

DNS leaks are impossible, and not even malware with root privileges can find out the user's real IP. With Whonix, you can use applications and run servers anonymously over the internet. Only connections through Tor are possible. The other, which we call Whonix-Workstation, is on a completely isolated network. Whonix consists of two parts: One solely runs Tor and acts as a gateway, which we call Whonix-Gateway. Whonix prevents this, here is a quote from their website It won't be for everyone but using whonix forces you to use Your whole OS (including command line) through Tor and should make leaks of your real IP address very unlikely, the other two methods may leak your real IP address in certain circumstances.

So my question is how can I use my command line utilities, or say whole operating system using Tor? To stay anon 100%? So instead of all that, simply edit /etc/nf and configure proxychains to use SOCKS5 then make sure that proxychains is properly proxying your DNS. Then there's the fact that you will have to somehow get the required IP address anonymously and configure the command line program to use that IP address (as opposed to make a DNS query).

This is however not an appealing solution to most users as it will break DNS on you non Tor browser (if you use one) and break any programs that rely on UDP. By default it is configured to use SOCKS4 which means it cannot use remote DNS as shown in this table which is probably why michael g suggested it might be worth configuring your firewall to drop all UDP packets and use IP addresses. I found a few answers on Google, like this one and a similar question has been asked before on this site This solution should work for those who have installed Tor (rather than Tor Browser) and it has some good links.Īs said by michael g and one of the answers on askubuntu: Tor Browser users can use proxychains here is the How To.
