🔧 Step 1: Start Tor Service

First, ensure Tor is installed and running as a background service:

sudo apt install tor          # Install Tor
sudo systemctl start tor      # Start Tor service
sudo systemctl status tor     # Verify it's running

Tor runs on SOCKS port 9050 by default. Use sudo systemctl restart tor if you encounter connectivity issues.

⚡️ Step 2: Configure Tor IP Changer

The Python script automates IP rotation by signaling Tor's control port.

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/isPique/Tor-IP-Changer.git
  1. Navigate to the project directory:
cd Tor-IP-Changer
  1. Install required libraries:
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Run the script:
sudo python3 IP-Changer.py

The script uses the Tor control port and sends the SIGNAL NEWNYM command to obtain a new circuit (new exit IP). Ensure the control port is enabled/configured in your Tor config if needed.

🔄 Step 3: Route Traffic with ProxyChains

ProxyChains redirects any application's traffic through Tor.

Edit /etc/proxychains4.conf and ensure these lines are set:

dynamic_chain
proxy_dns
socks5 127.0.0.1 9050

⚡ Usage Examples:

proxychains nmap -sT target.com
proxychains firefox example.com

ProxyChains works with most CLI and GUI applications and prevents DNS leaks by routing DNS queries through Tor.

💡 Pro Tips

  • Check your IP: proxychains curl https://icanhazip.com
  • Avoid rapid rotation: Tor may throttle NEWNYM requests faster than every ~10 seconds.
  • Combine with VPNs or additional proxies for advanced chaining (see proxychains.conf).
  • If ControlPort is disabled, enable and secure it in /etc/tor/torrc before using automation scripts.

⚠️ Important Notes

  • Use only for authorized testing and legal privacy purposes.
  • Tor exit nodes may be blocked by some services.
  • No tool guarantees perfect anonymity.
