Just follow me,

1. Remove the Tor repo from
/etc/yum.repos.d/ . And clean the metadata, su -c 'yum clean metadata' .

2. Uninstall polipo, su -c 'yum remove polipo' .

3. Install Tor and privoxy, su -c 'yum install tor privoxy'

4. Open the Privoxy config file for editing from /etc/privoxy.

      su -c 'gedit /etc/privoxy/config'

5. Comment out lines containing 'logfile logfile', 'jarfile jarfile', 'enable-remote-toggle', 'enable-remote-http-toggle', and 'enable-edit-actions' by prefixing their lines with a '#' character.
 
6. Add the following line to the config file:

      forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .

 8. Save and close the file.

 9. Restart the Privoxy and TOR services.

      cd /etc/init.d
      su -c 'service privoxy restart'
      su -c 'service tor restart'

10. Download and install the Firefox TorButton from Mozilla, and click enable Tor to browse. This is totally optional. U can browse using Tor without TorButton, all u have to do, under Firefox, go to the Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Settings > Manual Proxy Configuration > http proxy > host: 127.0.0.1 port: 8118. And check use this Proxy Server for all protocol.

11. Thats it.


PS: What did I always tell u? 1st check the repo for the software u want to install.

Hello,

I was trying to setup TOR (doesn't matter why I just wanna do). But things get
messed up. Let me tell you my steps first:

**First I created a repo of TOR in my /etc/yum.repos.d/ with:

[torproject]
name=Tor and Vidalia
enabled=1
autorefresh=0
baseurl=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/fc12/
type=rpm-md
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-torproject.org

**Then installed it with "yum install tor"

**Uninstalled privoxy with "yum remove privoxy"

**Installed polipo with "yum install polipo"

**configured polipo with "nano /etc/polipo/config" (What is my current polipo
configuration? check https://svn.torproject.org/svn/torbrowser/trunk/build-
scripts/config/polipo.conf
)

**Problem is now, after issuing "/etc/init.d/polipo restart" this is
happening:

[root@localhost Nirjhor]# /etc/init.d/polipo restart
Stopping polipo:                                           [FAILED]
Starting polipo: Established listening socket on port 8118.

##Installed torbutton for firefox but can't browse anything with it. Also I
want to configure opera to use TOR.

Please guide me.................
