Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that want
|
|
to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using Tor can help
|
|
you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC,
|
|
SSH, and other applications that use the TCP protocol. Tor also
|
|
provides a platform on which software developers can build new
|
|
applications with built-in anonymity, safety, and privacy features.
|
|
|
|
This script requires a 'tor' user/group to exist before running.
|
|
The recommended UID/GID is 220. You can create these like so:
|
|
groupadd -g 220 tor
|
|
useradd -u 220 -g 220 -c "The Onion Router" -d /dev/null -s /bin/false tor
|
|
|
|
You can pass another user/group to the script; this is however, less safe:
|
|
TOR_USER=nobody TOR_GROUP=nogroup sh tor.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
The following can be used to start/stop tor automatically:
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.local
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.tor ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.tor start
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.tor ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.tor stop
|
|
fi
|

torsocks is an optional dependency. See README.SLACKWARE for more
|
|
information.
|
|
nacl is an optional dependency and may provide faster performance on 32-bit
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
Take a look at README.SLACKWARE for important notes and read also very
|
|
carefully the essential hints that tor developers give you
