Please note that since tsocks uses LD_PRELOAD, torify cannot be applied
to suid binaries.
+You should also be aware that the way tsocks currently works only TCP
+connections are socksified. Be aware that this will in most circumstances
+not include hostname lookups which would still be routed through your
+normal system resolver to your usual resolving nameservers. The Tor
