<h2>Configuring a hidden service</h2>

<p>Tor allows clients and servers to offer <em>hidden services</em>. That

<p>Tor allows clients and servers to offer hidden services. That

is, you can offer an apache, sshd, etc, without revealing your IP to its
|

users. This works via Tor's rendezvous point design: both sides build
|
||||
a Tor circuit out, and they meet in the middle.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Using the built-in redirection (see below), it is possible to have a
|
||||
server setup on localhost and only remote Tor connections can access it.</p>

<p>If you're using Tor and <a href="http://www.privoxy.org/">Privoxy</a>,

assuming they're using a proxy (such as Privoxy) that speaks SOCKS 4A.</p>
|

|

<p>Assume you want to have a hidden service to allow people to access your
|
||||
Apache http server through tor. By doing this, they can access your server
|
||||
but won't know who they are connecting to. You want them to access your
|
||||
Apache server using the standard port 80. However, your Apache
|
||||
server is actually running on port 8080 so it needs to be
|
||||
redirected.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>HiddenServiceDir</b> is a directory where Tor will store information
|
||||
about that hidden service. In particular, it will store a file here named
|
||||
<i>hostname</i> which will tell you the onion URL. You don't need to add any
|
||||
files to this directory.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><b>HiddenServicePort</b> is where you specify a virtual port and where
|
||||
it should be redirected to. For instance, you tell tor there's a virtual
|
||||
port 80 and then redirect traffic to your local webserver at
|
||||
127.0.0.1:8080.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Example lines from a torrc file</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
HiddenServiceDir /usr/local/etc/tor/hidden_service/
|
||||
HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:8080
|
||||
</pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This tells tor to store its files in <tt>/usr/local/etc/tor/hidden_service/</tt>
|
||||
and allow people to connect to your onion address on port 80. It
|
||||
will then redirect requests to your localhost webserver on port 8080.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To let people access your hidden service, look at the file
|
||||
<tt>/usr/local/etc/tor/hidden_service/hostname</tt> which will tell you what the
|
||||
hostname is (such as xyz.onion). Then, as long as they have tor and privoxy
|
||||
configured, they can access your webserver with a web browser by connecting
|
||||
to http://xyz.onion.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>You can have multiple tor hidden services by repeating Dir and Ports:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
HiddenServiceDir /usr/local/etc/tor/hidden_service/
|
||||
HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:8080
|
||||
|
||||
HiddenServiceDir /usr/local/etc/tor/other_hidden_service/
|
||||
HiddenServicePort 6667 127.0.0.1:6667
|
||||
HiddenServicePort 22 127.0.0.1:22
|
||||
</pre>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The above example will allow people to connect to the hostname in
|
||||
<tt>/usr/local/etc/tor/hidden_service/hostname</tt> for an HTTP server and
|
||||
to a different hostname in
|
||||
<tt>/usr/local/etc/tor/other_hidden_service/hostname</tt> for an IRC and
|
||||
SSH server.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To an end user, this appears to be two separate hosts with one running an
|
||||
HTTP server and another running an IRC/SSH server.</p>
