Use localhost as proxy server address #4

Open SADR4 opened 1 year ago

SADR4 commented 1 year ago

Hi I'm using tor on WSL and wanna proxy it on whole OS, so I need to set 127.0.0.1 as server ip in lux, but lux doesn't let and alert for "true proxy server". What's the true proxy server, and how can I use loopback IP as server address?

Sorry for the late reply. In your scenario, True proxy server is the address of your Tor server, which you need to fill in on the settings page. The proxy chain is as follows:

lux -> localhost -> wsl -> tor server address (true proxy server)

However, using localhost as a server still lacks sufficient testing. Currently, it is not recommended to do so.

This issue will remain open until using localhost as a server becomes a stable feature.

i think you can easily solve this via making a rule for 127.0.0.1 to be direct not proxy i am using with v2rayn with no problem
