.SH "NAME"
torify \- wrapper for torsocks and tor
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBtorify\fR \fIapplication\fR [\fIapplication\(cqs\fR \fIarguments\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
\fBtorify\fR is a simple wrapper that attempts to find the best underlying Tor wrapper available on a system\&. It calls torsocks with a tor specific configuration file\&.
.sp
torsocks is an improved wrapper that explicitly rejects UDP, safely resolves DNS lookups and properly socksifies your TCP connections\&.
.sp
Please note that since both method use LD_PRELOAD, torify cannot be applied to suid binaries\&.
.SH "WARNING"
.sp
When used with torsocks, torify should not leak DNS requests or UDP data\&.
.sp
Both will leak ICMP data\&.
