[quote=“Patrick, post:4, topic:465”]You overlooked some points in documentation.
Mistake. → Do not forget to Remove Proxy Settings from Tor Browser:
Documentation advises otherwise.
The first test it supposed to do is this:
Go to the bottom of the settings file. Comment out “socks4 127.0.0.1 9050” and add for example “socks5 192.168.0.10 9152” (for Tor stream isolation) or “socks5 ip port” with an IP and port of your choice to set the proxy settings.
[ProxyList]
add proxy here …
meanwhile
defaults set to “tor”
#socks4 127.0.0.1 9050
socks5 192.168.0.10 9152
socks5 x.x.x.x xxxx
When that worked, you can replace that IP with your actual proxy. You’re probably better off using IP rather than some.host.name.
Mistake. → Documentation suggests.
proxychains ~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile ~/tor-browser_en-US/Data/profile
You somehow missed the Combining Tunnels with Tor chapter which also contains advice to test non-Tor Browser applications (wget.whonix-orig) with proxychains first.
There also is a chapter “required knowledge”:
Thanks for the help, I did mess up the browser settings but I still can’t get a proxy IP!
With the stream isolation IP the chain “works” according to konsole (didn’t remove the wrapper though) and still an exit node as IP, put up a few proxies and I’m still getting tor exit nodes! Commented out stream and still getting exit nodes.
proxychains ~/tor-browser_en-US/App/Firefox/firefox --profile ~/tor-browser_en-US/Data/profile
This code doesn’t work either, I’ve been testing with
proxychains /usr/bin/wget.whonix-orig https://check.torproject.org
and it says |D-chain|-<>-192.168.0.10:9152-<><>-xx.xxx.x.xxx:xxx-<><>-OK
but still giving me an exit node
I’m gonna keep playing around but it’s getting kinda frustrating. I’ll be sure to make a good size donation if this works out, thanks
