How to use nmap through proxychains?
I am running nmap through proxychains using this command:
proxychains nmap -v scanme.namp.org
This produced an error:
root@kali:~# proxychains nmap -v scanme.nmap.org

|DNS-response| scanme.nmap.org is 45.33.32.156
45.33.32.156/0 looks like an IPv6 target specification -- you have to use the -6 option.
Read data files from: /usr/bin/../share/nmap
WARNING: No targets were specified, so 0 hosts scanned.
Nmap done: 0 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 0.94 seconds
Then I went to this question (here) and I tried this:
to the solution was, that I disabled the DNS through socks:
in /etc/proxychains.conf file, just add a # before the line "proxy_dns"
But when I ran nmap through proxychains the nmap scan was running, but the proxychains proxy is not working which gave me the following verbose output:

From this we can see that the nmap works fine, but my question is why did nmap start as soon as the command was executed without tunneling itself through the proxies?, but if I ran a command like this:
proxychains firefox www.google.com
I got the following verbose output which shows the tunneling of proxies.
