tor transproxy tsocks ....
 

I had enough of privoxy still stopping my browsing for some who knows prevention reason.So i came across the idea of using something more transparent,ok,i have tryied both transproxy and tsocks but i made something wrong so even apt-get stopped working looking for a proxy that i haven't configured the right way.Did anyone one ever used the tor transproxy or tor tsocks,i have a debian gateway sarge 3.1,and i would like to know something more this .Well if you care of privacy the tor tsocks thing looks top!!:Pengy:

So, what did you try? Did you really exported LD_PRELOAD before running? Did you set up DNS (it is udp, so it isn't tsocks'ed)?

i' m actually using transproxy but is not using tor .My browsing is not anonymous at all i verified on whatismyip.org ,how do i configure the tsocks.conf to use tor?

i' m actually using transproxy but is not using tor .My browsing is not anonymous at all i verified on whatismyip.org ,how do i configure the tsocks.conf to use tor?I want to exclude apt-get(wget) to use transproxy , it's not a good thing to download softwares through a proxy isn'it!

If I'm correct, transproxy simply intercepts http requests and automatically, and tranparently, redirects these requests to a proxy.

So, you must still have an http proxy running (privoxy or squid), that transproxy redirects requests to.

So your proxy must be configured for tor, not transproxy.

cheers,

And how do i configure transproxy to use another proxy?When i launch transproxy and his related iptables browser connections get proxied but apt-get fails and anyway it's not using tor ,how do i configure the tsocks.conf? i got some hints from the tor website but they refer to a socks.conf that seems not use the same transproxy sintax.

I'm using this in the tsocks.conf:
local = 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0
local = 0.0.0.0/0
path {
reaches = 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
reaches = 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
server_type = 5
server = 127.0.0.1
server_port = 9050
}
server = 127.0.0.1
server_type = 5
server_port = 9050
I've put the variable LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libtsocks.so in the /etc/init.d/transproxy,correct ???
i wouldn't avoid to type anytime the export LD_PRELOAD.I'm sure there's not right att all.I have also squid running to involve in this .......... help !

It was just there !I mean the /usr/share/doc dir ,i know of this dir but i never think of it in the first place .... ok ! There i found a sample tsocks.conf plus examples.Anonymity and privacy in internet is important it's such a powerfull weapon ...
