Tor in Pinguyos

tor

For those who enjoy being online with real anonymity, I sincerely advice the use of TOR.

In my case, once I use PinguyOS I started for adding TOR repo to my sources list:

deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org natty main

Then the Key for it to work, using the commands: 
( please elevate yourself to root before )

gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89

gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -

Then just do:

apt-get update

Now you can get to install TOR and VIDALIA. Just typing this commands:

apt-get install tor tor-geoipdb

apt-get install vidalia


When running the vidalia installation 
just choose the option for it to takeover Tor.

Now, you can run Vidalia to start TOR. 
In fact you don't really need to mess arround with further 
configuration. 
This is it, tor is now running for your private "lurking" 
on the internet.


From this point forward, the only thing you have to consider 
is to use a SOCKS 5 proxy in your applications
(Browser, terminal client etc) with the following data:

Host: 1270.0.1 or localhost
Port: 9050

Now browse to a site like www.whatismyip.com and enjoy :)
