Do you want to run a tor server?
|
||||
|
||||
We're looking for people with reasonably reliable Internet connections,
|
||||
that have at least 1Mbit each way. Currently we don't use all of that,
|
||||
but we want it available for burst traffic.
|
||||
|
||||
(The Tor server doesn't need to be run as root, and doesn't need any
|
||||
special system permissions or kernel mods. You should probably run it
|
||||
as its own user though, especially if you run an identd service too.)
|
||||
|
||||
First, copy torrc.sample to torrc (by default it's in
|
||||
/usr/local/etc/tor/), and edit the middle part. Create the
|
||||
DataDirectory, and make sure it's owned by the uid/gid that will be
|
||||
running tor. Fix your system clock so it's not too far off. Make sure
|
||||
name resolution works.
|
||||
|
||||
Then run tor to generate keys. One of the files generated
|
||||
in your DataDirectory is your 'fingerprint' file. Mail it to
|
||||
tor-ops@freehaven.net.
|
||||
|
||||
Please also tell us in that mail who you are, so we know whom to contact
|
||||
if there's any problem. Also describe what kind of connectivity the new
|
||||
server will have. If possible PGP sign your mail.
|
||||
|
||||
You may find the initscript in contrib/tor.sh useful if you
|
||||
want to set up Tor to start at boot.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Do you want to run a hidden service?
|
||||
|
||||
Copy torrc.sample to torrc (by default it's in /usr/local/etc/tor/), and
|
||||
edit the bottom part. Then run Tor. It will create each HiddenServiceDir
|
||||
you have configured, and it will create a 'hostname' file which
|
||||
specifies the url (xyz.onion) for that service. You can tell people
|
||||
the url, and they can connect to it via their Tor client.
|
||||
