FIX TORSOCKS PERROR ISSUE

In ParrotOS if you install torsocks using apt-get install torsocks, it installs fine, however you cannot run it from the commandline as it has the following error

Error:
PERROR torsocks[2859]: socks5 libc connect: Connection refused (in socks5_connect() at socks5.c:202)

To fix this error do the following

Type:
sudo nano /etc/tor/torsocks.conf

Scroll down to the TorPort line

Change 9050 to 9150

Now it should read
TorPort 9150

Press CTRL + X
Press Y to save

Now you can run torsocks
