Thumbs down Tor + Tsocks + Pidgin


Hello.
I installed tor and it connected to the tor server properly :

Code:
Jul 10 15:34:06.546 [notice] Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050
Jul 10 15:34:06.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 0%: Starting

Jul 10 15:34:09.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 25%: Loading networkstatus consensus
Jul 10 15:34:21.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have no usable consensus.

Jul 10 15:34:22.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 45%: Asking for relay descriptors
Jul 10 15:34:22.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We need more microdescriptors: we have 0/6621, and can only build 0% of likely paths. (We have 0% of guards bw, 0% of midpoint bw, and 0% of exit bw = 0% of path bw.)

Jul 10 15:38:49.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 90%: Establishing a Tor circuit
Jul 10 15:38:51.000 [notice] Tor has successfully opened a circuit. Looks like client functionality is working.
Jul 10 15:38:51.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 100%: Done

Then
I configure my "tsocks" for use "127.0.0.1" and port "9050" but when I use "tsocks pidgin" and want open my Gmail account it show me :

Code:
Jul 10 15:43:17.000 [warn] Socks5 username/password version 60 not recognized; rejecting.
Jul 10 15:43:17.000 [warn] Fetching socks handshake failed. Closing.
when I change pidgin setting to "socks 5" it show me :

Code:
15:54:51 libtsocks(23140): Need a password in tsocks.conf or $TSOCKS_PASSWORD to authenticate with
and when pidgin ask me Gtalk password and I enter it show me "Not Authorized"

What is my problem?

proxychains show me same error :

Code:
$ proxychains pidgin

Why would you want to use Pidgin through Tor?
You should never use anything that requires authentication through Tor because that makes you identifiable.
This negates the point of using Tor in the first place.

Having said that, it looks like you need to edit tsocks.conf based on the response you're getting. You should probably read the man pages associated with it.

I want to use Tor with Pidgin because of Third Person.
Edit tsocks.conf? You mean is I must use "default_user" and "default_pass" ?
