iptables changes over ssh

Talk status

This discussion is done.

Do not execute iptables -P OUTPUT DROP when connected over ssh ... as you will be cut off ;-) — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bw (talk • contribs) 6 February 2017

Uh...thanks? :) Nothing to discuss about this. If there's a problem in the article you can fix it. Publicly editable and all... --Maffblaster (talk) 04:49, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

iptable owner error

Talk status

This discussion is done.

root #iptables -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner tor -j ACCEPT gives me the following error: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bw (talk • contribs) 6 February 2017

You need to enable "owner" support in Network filtering on your linux kernel. Enable advanced settings in Networking filtering support, go into core filter and enable owner, that should do it, --GovanifY (talk) 13:22, 20 April 2017 (UTC+2)

Chromium

Talk status

This discussion is still ongoing.

After following this guide I had problems with a couple of programs, one of them was Chromium until I added this: CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--proxy-server=socks5://127.0.0.1:9050" to /etc/chromium/default.

I didn't want to add the comment to the page unless somebody can corroborate my experience, just in case I messed something up on my configuration with out me realising and that was the cause of the problem. Patomas (talk) 08:45, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Breakup into multiple pages

Talk status

This discussion is still ongoing.

This page is enormous in size and contains a lot of information. It can be better done by breaking it into smaller pages. Alternatively, this information is not pertinent to Gentoo and is general Tor information, it might not be best suited to stay in our wiki. I prefer keeping it and breaking it up.

Is it true that rsync cannot work over Tor? I have successfully run sudo torsocks emaint sync -a, and I still use the default rsync method (instead of Git) for ::gentoo. -- Jorge (talk) 21:40, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

Where to configure the Socks proxy

Talk status

This discussion is still ongoing as of 2024-07-16.

The article recommends setting up the proxy directly on Firefox for those who use Firefox instead of the Tor Browser. Instead I set up the proxy in my desktop environment (Gnome) settings, and verified Firefox is set to use system proxy settings. Isn't that better? Can I edit the article with this recommendation, or is there a downside I am not seeing? -- Jorge (talk) 14:15, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
