I configured squid proxy with anonimizer on a remote server but it seems that the DNS lookup happens before a request is sent to a website over proxy. I am using windows 10 as home system and a squid proxy on a remote centos7. Did I forget some settings to do DNS lookups on the proxy serer?
The same thing happened when I ssh tunneled into the server with squid turned off and local network configured to use the tunnel.
VNP service providers and some proxy providers appear to not have this issue. How are they configuring DNS lookups to go from their remote servers and not from my local machine?
Image: proxy DNS when using SOCKS v5 In firefox, if I check the box in front Proxy DNS when using SOCKS v5, a site like https://ipleak.net/#dnsleak suddenly starts showing DNS servers belonging to hosting provider where the SSH tunneling is connected to. Which is what I wanted to do. How do I do this globally for whole OS or am I forced to use firefox?
Launching chrome from cmd like this: chrome --proxy-server="socks5://localhost:8181"
did launch it but it did not tunnel neither http requests or DNS lookups .
