So, next find the line in the torrc file “SocksPolicy accept 192.168.0.0/16” this line allows certain ip address to use this tor socks proxy. More on Netmask/network address/Subnetmask This indicates your local network address is 192.168.1.0/24. Though my ip address and and network mask is configured by my home routers DHCP server, you can easily find it by running an “ifconfig” command on the command prompt on your windows system and you shall see something like the following: You may want to allow all the devices on your local network to have this access or do it selectively.
Next you shall need to allow the hosts that shall access the socks proxy server. This link will help you discover the ip address you are using on your local network. To make the socks server work for the lan you shall need to configure it with the ip address of the Raspberry pi, which is in this case “192.168.1.201” so the line should be: ( the ip address should reflect your Raspberry Pi ip address). By default this shall only listen to the loopback interface(127.0.0.1).
Once found remove the # and activate the line. Search for the line containing “#SocksPort 9050” Lets first make a backup copy of the the files before we make any changes
Once tor is installed we shall edit the tor configuration file and configure it to run a a socks 5 for the local network. For this tutorial, This installation shall run a tor client, and reconfigure tor socks proxy server to allow a web browser from the local network to access internet resources, privately and anonymously. Next we shall install tor “a connection-based low-latency anonymous communication system”. Sudo apt-get install deluge-console -y Installing tor on raspberry Pi This is to ensure, you are running the latest and updated distribution of Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi. You shall also need to make sure your Raspberry Pi is having a fixed/static IP address Update and upgrade Raspbian installed on Raspberry Pi: If you want to use your Raspberry Pi to replace your gateway and use all communication anonymously this would be a good tutorial to start with.įor this project you shall need a raspberry Pi running Raspbian on your local network. You may use other applications with this tor socks proxy installed on your Raspberry Pi. This shall allow you to browse anonymously without having to install tor on your desktop machine. The goal is to setup your Raspberry Pi as a tor socks Proxy and help you setup a desktop web browser to use the tor socks proxy.
