whooop … looks good!

now we come to some tricky stuff:

Quote:

enable rzr’s repository (setup repository)
install tor through command line: apt-get install tor

… apt will now go crazy with alot of permission errors:

Quote:

chown: /var/lib/tor: Operation not permitted

to fix this – change the ownership for all the errors manually (through opensh):

Quote:

chown debian-tor:debian-tor /var/lib/tor
chown debian-tor:debian-tor /var/run/tor

…

… now we have to check if we use our phone as dns-server …

the file “/etc/resolv.conf” should contain the following string:

Quote:

nameserver 127.0.0.1

… the next step is to configure the torrc file “/etc/tor/torrc”

mine looks like this:

Quote:

SocksPort 9050 # what port to open for local application connections
SocksListenAddress 127.0.0.1 # accept connections only from localhost
VirtualAddrNetwork 10.192.0.0/10
AutomapHostsOnResolve 1
TransPort 9040
DNSPort 53
RunAsDaemon 1

… tor should be staring up as a daemon now! :)

to make things easier, I packed some scripts together to handle tor through 3 desktop icons:

Quote:

to start tor for all traffic
to start tor in background (for example: in fennec/firefox set socks proxy to localhost:9050)
to stop tor and unset system-wide proxy settings

here you can download torswitch0.1

cheers!

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

Great!!

Could be very handy

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

It tells me that the opensh package is invalid.

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

... I checked the opensh package again and it looks good to me:

Code:

~ $ dpkg --contents MyDocs/opensh_1.00_armel.deb

drwxr-xr-x 0/0         0 2011-11-21 14:35:09 ./

... how did you incept the package?

-> for me it worked when i was logged in as root:

devel-su first, than develsh, than incept it through "/usr/sbin/incept opensh_1.00_armel.deb"

... never tryed it thourgh rootssh, but you can have a look at the torswitch_*.desktop files, located under /usr/share/applications ... it simple calls a shell script through "opensh"

Do you think this will help with tetherblocks? Thanks

tetherblocks?

if you mean tethering, than no, it wont work, because it sets the local gnome proxy through gconftool-2.

you could try and play with iptables when you are tethering your connection.

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

this is awesome, well done. really missed tor coming from my n900

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

No matter what I try I can't seem to figure out how to install this...

Code:

apt-get install tor

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree

Reading state information... Done

tor is already the newest version.

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.

1 not fully installed or removed.

After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.

Setting up tor (0.2.3.10-alpha-1) ...

chown: /var/lib/tor: Operation not permitted

dpkg: error processing tor (--configure):

 subprocess installed post-installation script return

Errors were encountered while processing:

 tor

Updating desktop entries... Done

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code

The following gives no error message but changes nothing (i e if followed by a new apt-get install tor or apt-get -f install I will still get the above output)

Code:

chown debian-tor:debian-tor /var/lib/tor

A little help would be greatly appreciated...

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

Seens like you need root (devel-su)
If you already are. Try to further escalate priviledges with develsh.
Then, install package

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

Hi NielDK, how about releasing a version of your packages of tor for Sailfish on Harmattan? :p

Re: howto: tor (the onion router) on meego

Does anyone have the instructions to compile a recent version of Tor for the Nokia N9?
