Quickstart version for users:
|
|
|
|
0) Download the absolute newest version. No, really.
|
|
http://tor.eff.org/dist/
|
|
1) tar xvf it, and then cd into the directory.
|
|
2) ./configure
|
|
3) make
|
|
4) make install (as root if necessary)
|
|
5) tor (if it doesn't work, give it the whole path or fix your path)
|
|
You don't need to run this as root, and you probably shouldn't.
|
|
(If you're having problems, try running it with "-l info" to get
|
|
more details.)
|
|
6) point your browser to socks4 or socks5 proxy at localhost port
|
|
9050. In mozilla, this is in edit|preferences|advanced|proxies. This
|
|
allows you to test to make sure tor is installed correctly.
|
|
(If you have a personal firewall, be sure to allow local connections
|
|
to port 9050.)
|
|
(If your firewall blocks outgoing connections, punch a hole so it
|
|
can connect to TCP *:9001-9004 and *:9031-9033)
|
|
(If you're using Safari as your browser, keep in mind that OS X before
|
|
10.3 claims to support socks but does not. You must do step 8.)
|
|
7) make sure you've set it up correctly: go to
|
|
http://www.junkbusters.com/cgi-bin/privacy and see what IP it says
|
|
you're coming from. If it works, you should probably go on to step 8,
|
|
to get better privacy.
|
|
|
|
8) Optionally, install privoxy (www.privoxy.org), and add the line
|
|
"forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 ." (without the quotes -- don't forget
|
|
the dot) to its config file. Then change your mozilla to http proxy
|
|
at localhost port 8118 (and no socks proxy). You should also set your
|
|
SSL proxy to the same thing, to hide your https traffic. Using privoxy
|
|
will give you good html scrubbing as well.
|
|
(See doc/CLIENTS for why direct socks gives you less anonymity.)

*****If this works for you, you can stop reading here******
|
|
|
|
If you got the source from cvs:
|
|
|
|
Run "./autogen.sh", which will run the various auto* programs and then
|
|
run ./configure for you. From there, start at step 3 in the quickstart
|
|
list above.
|
|
|
|
If the quickstart doesn't work for you:
|
|
|
|
If you have problems finding libraries, try
|
|
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" \
|
|
./configure
|
|
rather than simply ./configure.
|
|
|
|
If you have mysterious autoconf failures while linking openssl,
|
|
consider setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the openssl lib directory.
|
|
For example, "setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/athena/lib".
