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 + +Tor requires libevent. |
