Tor Configuration

My Tor Configuration:


Install Tor and Privoxy on server

Configure Privoxy to use Tor - see www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en

forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .


Configure Squid to use Tor

cache_peer localhost parent 8118 7 no-query default
# bypass tor for google because it thinks I'm in Germany!
acl no_tor url_regex .google.co
# force the use of privoxy/tor:
always_direct allow no_tor
never_direct allow all
# frig the hostname that squid sends
visible_hostname localhost


point browsers to squid
point pidgin to <server>:9050,socks 4 (direct to tor)
point thunderbird to squid (for http) and <server>:9050 for socks (4)
