– Source github’s proxychains : https://github.com/rofl0r/proxychains-ng.git

# yum install -y git
# cd /usr/local/src
# git clone https://github.com/rofl0r/proxychains-ng.git 
# cd proxychains-ng 
# ./configure && make && make install 
# make install-config

– Now we will got the default path directory of configuration file for proxychains application and binary of it (this is default path when you compile source proxychains) :

+ Configuration file : /usr/local/etc/proxychains.conf
