How to set up Toolip on Ubuntu

Step 1. Open Your Terminal

1. Press Ctrl+Alt+T to open the Terminal.

Step 2. Set Proxy Environment Variables

1. Replace [HOST], [PORT], [USERNAME], and [PASSWORD] with your Toolip details.

2. Run the following commands:

export http_proxy="http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"
export https_proxy="http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"

Use the following commands for SOCKS5 configuration:

export socks_proxy="socks5://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"

If you need a country-specific exit node, modify [USERNAME] accordingly (e.g., your-username-country-US).

Step 3. Verify Your Proxy Configuration

1. Test the proxy setup by running:

curl http://httpbin.org/ip

2. The output should display the IP address assigned by Toolip.

Step 4. Make Proxy Settings Persistent (Optional)

To apply the proxy settings across sessions:

1. Open the .bashrc file in your home directory:

 nano ~/.bashrc

2. Add the following lines at the end of the file:

export http_proxy="http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"
export https_proxy="http://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"
export socks_proxy="socks5://[USERNAME]:[PASSWORD]@[HOST]:[PORT]"

3. Save and exit (Ctrl+O, Enter, Ctrl+X).

4. Reload the file to apply the changes:

source ~/.bashrc
