If the browser leaks identifying client information through HTTPS or other encrypted protocols, the proxy (torify) will not be able to help. That is why Tor Browser is important.
yep, the way it is setup is you create a private network in VMWare, the proxy/router box has a live IP address on one end and is running a DHCP server on the private network. The client VM's connect to the Tor daemon on the proxy/router using SOCKS or HTTP
I don't use torify or anything else - if the app doesn't support SOCKS or HTTP then I don't use it. Any browser leaks will just hit a wall against the router VM.
It's the whonix architecture - except I use my own router (wasn't comfortable with whonix's 1.6GB+ router) and client.
