I downloaded proxychains on ubuntu 20.04 recently using

sudo apt install proxychains

Now for configuring the proxy addresses, I cannot find the /etc/proxychains.conf file.

What to do now? Any terminal command that can be of help??

First, make sure the proxychains files are indexed by the locate command

sudo updatedb

Once updatedb completes, use the locate command to see the location of the .conf file.

locate proxychains

Finally, use the command to access the configuration

sudo nano /etc/proxychains.conf

Are you running the command on root? It seems like the proxy chain command when run on the root, cannot locate the proxy config file. To anybody who is having this trouble, try running proxy chain command in Terminal Emulator.
