Long Wiki Edits Thread

Chapter “Copy Tor State File to Fresh sys-whonix VM” added to wiki/Tor.

https://whonix.org/wiki/w/index.php?title=Tor&oldid=33071&diff=cur

Not sure if I like chapter title. I saw this terminology used under the “Rotation of Entry Guards” chpater and I tried to copy the language.

On occasion, users may be tempted to create a new Whonix-Gateway (Qubes-Whonix: sys-whonix) because:

  • One of the fallback primary entry guards.
  • A configured bridge.
  • Possibly combine tunnels with Tor.
  • Creating a fresh Whonix-Gateway (sys-whonix), and copying across the Tor state file.

Also, In the instructions, what would be the correct terminology to use - Tor state, Tor state file(s), Tor state folder? It seem different terminology should be used depending on the context of the instructions.

If any changes are necessary please let me know.

Almost forgot, Qubes-Whonix 14 Testers blog instructions have been update.
