Basically we need to install three things:
- Polipo - a proxy server,
- Tor, the onion router, and
- Torbutton -a Firefox add-on.
Install Polipo, a caching web proxy
sudo apt-get install polipo
Setup polipoManually open /etc/polipo/config and copy-paste config details here or
sudo sh -c "wget 'https://svn.torproject.org/svn/torbrowser/trunk/build-scripts/config/polipo.conf' -O /etc/polipo/config"
After this restart polipo sudo /etc/init.d/polipo restart
Add Tor repositorysudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org karmic main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list"
Add Tor repository GPG keygpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89
gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -
Update repositories and install Torsudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tor
Install Torbutton (an add-on to firefox) Just go to website of Torbutton and install it.
Check if you are anonymous
Enable tor in Firefox using the Torbutton, and go to Are you using Tor?If everything is OK you should see the following:
Additionally, you can install vidalia, a GUI for Tor
sudo apt-get install vidalia
Now, using vidalia you can create a new identity (i.e. a new IP) whenever you want:
Out of curiosity why did you choose polipo over privoxy?

ReplyDeleteYour tutorial reminded me this and I've installed again.
Thanks!
Excellent guide. Thank you. I'll probably integrate it in my next Ubuntu guide :-)
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI think there is a problem with the addon Tor button. After restarting Firefox it doesn't remember my web pages that were open. After Disabling this addon after restarting Firefox everything is OK.
I have Swiftfox 3.6.

ReplyDeleteTorbutton disables lots of stuff in Firefox to be fully anonymous. More on that you can find here: https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/faq.html.en
I followed all the steps down to checking status. Tor disabled, Clicked-Are you using Tor-site says no you are not, Enabled Tor, Clicked-Are you using Tor- nothing happens. Using Firefox 3.5.8, on Karmic (kernel 2.6.31-20

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found
ReplyDeletea sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter
and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is
