server+tor: add support for Tor HASHEDPASSWORD authentication method 
This provides users an alternative over the SAFECOOKIE authentication
method, which may not be as useful if users are connecting to a remote

Raw Blame History

tor

The tor package contains utility functions that allow for interacting with the Tor daemon. So far, supported functions include:

  • Routing all traffic over Tor's exposed SOCKS5 proxy.
  • Routing DNS queries over Tor (A, AAAA, SRV).
  • Limited Tor Control functionality (synchronous messages only). So far, this includes:
    • Support for SAFECOOKIE, HASHEDPASSWORD, and NULL authentication methods.
    • Creating v2 and v3 onion services.

In the future, the Tor Control functionality will be extended to support v3 onion services, asynchronous messages, etc.
