Hey guys,
I have come so far and it's killing me... I want Ubuntu to connect to Tor only through a firewall (using a Oracle VM) after setting up and then doing the following -
1.Start TorBrowser Bundle.
2. Click "Firewall" to highlight it, and then click on "Snapshots (1)" in the top right.
3. Right click on "Snapshot 1" and then select "Restore Snapshot". Select "Restore" if prompted.
4. Right click "Firewall" and click "Start"
5. Right click "Primary" and click Start. Log in as normal.
6. Go to "Applications" -> "Accessories" -> "Terminal"
7. Type in: sudo bash (and hit enter)
8. Type in the following commands exactly as shown below (or copy paste them):
ifconfig eth0 10.0.3.2
9. Your terminal window should still be open. Type in the following command exactly as shown (or copy paste it):
ssh -N -L 9050:10.0.2.2:9050 root@10.0.3.1
10. Type "yes" if prompted. When prompted for the password, give your Firewall password. Not your Ubuntu password.
11. In your terminal window, go to "File" and "Open Tab".
12. Now, type exactly as shown below to open the second tunnel:
ssh -N -L 8118:10.0.2.2:8118 root@10.0.3.1
13. Return to Firefox. Go to the "File" menu and uncheck "Work Offline" if it is checked.
14. Go to the URL: http://check.torproject.org
I then get the following error while trying to go to the above URL in Firefox
The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
And in my terminal i get -
channel 2: open failed: connect failed: Connection timed out
channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection timed out
Can someone help an IT illiterate?
Thanks
