Problems with proxychains

[MajesticRev]

I'm trying to set up proxychains. when i was trying to find the file i type

loacate proxychains.conf

the results were

/etc/proxychains.conf

so i typed

nano /ect/proxychains.conf

and it opened a new nano folder and not the one i wanted

Did you type /ect/proxy... Or /etc/prox.... ?

Hi @MajesticRev, and welcome!

Assuming you got the spelling correct, I don't think you could tell the difference if nano opened an existing empty file, or whether it created a new file.

If you created a new /ect folder ... well... oops.

Cheers

That's not so much a proxychains problem as a spelling issue. If you got the filename, path, and the file exists it should open up.
