i downloaded tor. do i need to type something before running it? i have tor and torsocks-git.
Are you running linux? If you’re using a debian or ubuntu package manager, then it will install Tor so that it just works. That is, when you reboot your Tor backend will be running automatically. Try typing
systemctl status torto check. If it says “active”, it’s running. The next test is to runtorbrowser-launcherand go tohttps://check.torproject.org/. If all that checks out, then you can simply prefix commandline commands withtorsocks(it’s mainly just java apps that won’t work with torsocks).thanks it working now. i did
i think
