Error when I use proxychains and yay

Open lucky9-cyou opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

When I use yay with proxychains to install software, it had FTP error. I have rebuilt yay using gcc-go. image The IP of destinations is ftp.gnu.org:21. I don't know why it changed to 127.0.0.1:25603.

About proxychains-ng, I just change ProxyList image

So, how to fix it. Thx

FTP error

FTP is quite an idiotic protocol designed in the 70ies. it uses numerous connection and worst of it, it opens a server port on the local machine and asks the remote to connect back to that. that obviously doesn't work since firewalls or NAT were invented. maybe you can get it to work with "passive mode", and probably you need to activate the line in proxychains.conf that uses localnet for 127.x.x.x.
