so he gets the permissions right. also this means clients will never need to make the datadirectory. also remind the admin to fix his clock before setting up his node. svn:r650

'tor' is an implementation of The Onion Routing system, as
|
|
described in a bit more detail at http://www.onion-router.net/. You
|
|
can read list archives, and subscribe to the mailing list, at
|
|
http://archives.seul.org/or/dev/.

Is your question in the FAQ? Should it be?

See the INSTALL file for a quickstart. That is all you will probably need.

You only need to look beyond this point if the quickstart in the INSTALL

|
doesn't work for you.

Do you want to run a tor server?
|
|
|
|
First, move sample-server-torrc onto torrc, and edit it. Create the
|
|
DataDirectory, and make sure it's owned by whoever will be running
|
|
tor. Fix your system clock so it's not too far off. Then run tor
|
|
to generate keys. One of the generated files is your 'fingerprint'
|
|
file. Mail it to arma@mit.edu. Remember that you won't be able to
|
|
authenticate to the other tor nodes until I've added you to the
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
Configuring tsocks:
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Tor for protocols that can't use Privoxy, or
|
|
with applications that are not socksified, then download tsocks
|
|
(tsocks.sourceforge.net) and configure it to talk to localhost:9050
|
|
as a socks4 server. My /etc/tsocks.conf simply has:
|
|
server_port = 9050
|
|
server = 127.0.0.1
|
|
(I had to "cd /usr/lib; ln -s /lib/libtsocks.so" to get the tsocks
|
|
library working after install, since my libpath didn't include /lib.)
|
|
Then you can do "tsocks ssh arma@moria.mit.edu". But note that if
|
|
ssh is suid root, you either need to do this as root, or cp a local
|
|
version of ssh that isn't suid.
