Second instance not running

[firzzen]

Having an issue with running multiple configs through different shell windows at the same time. Basically i'm using it to connect to a service with a python script.

The first time i run "proxychains /path/to/file/proxychains.conf" it works perfectly fine. The second time i try to run any of the following:

proxychains /path/to/file/proxychains.conf proxychains /path/to/file/proxychains-xxxx.conf

It gives me this with the respective path included:

/etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: 18: /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: strict_chain: not found /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: 41: /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: tcp_read_time_out: not found /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: 42: /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: tcp_connect_time_out: not found /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: 60: /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: [ProxyList]: not found /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: 64: /etc/proxychains-xxxx.conf: http: not found

And i guarantee you the config file is fully configured. It works for the first instance.

If i run:

proxychains -f /path/to/file/proxychains-xxxx.conf

It gives me:

/usr/bin/proxychains: 9: exec: -f: not found

What am i doing wrong? Any and all help is appreciated!

are you sure what ubuntu ships is actually proxychains-ng (this repo) or the old, old v3.1 version ? usually when the distributor did no custom changes, proxychains-ng can be started via proxychains4.
