Use with proxychain not working

[xiaozhuai]

Proxyman version?

2.1.1

macOS Version?

10.14.6

Steps to reproduce

Not all program use system proxy, so I need proxychain to hook socket apis to make it work.

1. Preferences - General - Uncheck "Auto select available port"
2. Preferences - General - Uncheck "Auto override System Proxy Config after launch"
3. Restart proxyman
4. Install proxychains-ng brew install proxychains-ng and edit /usr/local/etc/proxychains.conf

   [ProxyList]
   http    127.0.0.1   9090
   

5. proxychains4 curl www.baidu.com
6. The command is blocked and proxyman do not catch anything

If I change command to http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:9090 https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:9090 curl www.baidu.com, it works.
But that is not what I want. I want proxychains works.
I also tried Charles, it works fine with proxychains.

Proxyman is such a great work! And hope this will be fixed soon, and I will purchase it.

Thanks. I will investigate the Proxychain and sent you a hotfix soon 👍

Hey @xiaozhuai, do you have any special config on Charles app? (Enable SOCKs 5 or something 🤔 )

I follow your steps, but it doesn't appear on Charles too

[xiaozhuai]

proxychains [ProxyList] should has only one line http 127.0.0.1 9090

[xiaozhuai]

I found something really strange, if it's https, proxyman with proxychains works fine. Charles works both http and https

[NghiaTranUIT]

I'm not sure but I'm not able to make proxychain works properly

# ProxyList format
#       type  ip  port [user pass]
#       (values separated by 'tab' or 'blank')

I tried tab or blank and they're not working (screenshot)

Maybe can you get the error log from Proxyman by going to Help menu -> Enable Debug Mode -> Quit the app and open the URL on the alert. Then pls copy to me errors if there are any

[xiaozhuai]

Oh, i forgot it... Proxychains need SIP disabled cause it hooks into other process.

[NghiaTranUIT]

ok. Let me try to disable SIP 😮

[xiaozhuai]

You need to reboot to recovery mode and run csrutil disable

[NghiaTranUIT]

I'm able to reproduce the bug. Investigating mode .... 👀

[xiaozhuai]

Ok, wait for your good news!

[NghiaTranUIT]

@xiaozhuai let check out this build https://proxyman.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/beta/Proxyman_2.1.1_Fix_Proxychain.dmg

Basically, Proxyman hasn't covered this edge case yet (Make HTTP Request but on CONNECT connection)

[xiaozhuai]

Works now! Nice job!
