Tor setup

This guide assumes that there is already a configured webserver sitting on port 80 waiting for localhost connections. The apache2 guide guides you through this.

1. Login as root.
2. Install tor.
3. Edit /etc/tor/torrc
4. Go to the line that contains HiddenServiceDir and HiddenServicePort, uncomment those 2 lines and set them like this:

   HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/4get
   HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80
   

5. Restart the tor service using service tor restart
6. Wait for a while...
7. Run cat /var/lib/tor/4get/hostname. That is your onion address!

Specify your own tor address
