Ask Ubuntu Asked on November 14, 2021
I want to use the redsocks2 software to allow for internet redirection thru a proxy. I have managed to install it and in the git documentation the configuration for this appears easy.
Redsocks2 respository:
https://github.com/semigodking/redsocks
My problem is that i just don’t know where to put the config file or the name that it should have
We are trying the same thing, I use Manjaro and the configuration file are located (installing redsocks2 from AUR) in the following directory: /etc/redsocks2.conf
But if you want to use it in Ubuntu I think you will have to compile it from the source (redsocks2).
Once you have installed it (you have to disable shadowsocks) then you will find an example configuration file in /usr/share/doc/redsocks2/redsocks2.conf.example
The novelty of redsocks2 is that it allows you to use it together with openssl, passing the entire connection of the computer through it.
Please, if you have made progress in the configuration, share it. Tomorrow I will try redsocks2, hopefully it works.

Many software applications are packaged and exist in the official repositories.
The RedSocks is packaged for all current Ubuntu versions.
To install it you need to execute the following commands in the terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install redsocks
According to its file list it has configuration files in the /etc
folder:
The details about the application may found in man redsocks
(or online). Also configuration files usually contain comments, so such files are self-explaining.
