I'm trying to use TOR.
I installed it and it start well (ready) (with help of Vidalia)
I than tried to configure FF as it should using proxy, the given port used by TOR etc...
I tried 9050 - 9051 - 9150 - 9151 (DNS checked, no proxy for 127.0.0.1 etc...
I never could get any web page under FF (38 or 45) using TOR !
How do you do to be able to use FF with TOR ?
Thanks

Hi
Uhm.. my 2014 discussion notes (https://www.os2world.com/forum/index.php/topic,363.0.html) are not working anymore.
General FYI:
Latest version is 0.4.0.5 - updated 2019-05-11
available on: https://os2ports.smedley.id.au/index.php?page=tor
More comments are welcome.

2Remy: Unfortunately, it seems, proxies are broken in current versions of FF and SM. So, I won't be able to use Tor or any Http or
Socks proxy in FF / SM. Trying different proxy-related settings didn't help.

How are proxies broken? I just started squid and am using it for a proxy and it seems to work.

Hi.
I just tried it on Firefox 45.9.0, ArcaOS 5.0.4 and TOR 0.4.0.5.
I configured the socks as the picture.
It is not working, but it seems to be something more related to DNS, if you call the IP directly you can get some pages, but if some other URL with DNS is called, you will get nothing on your screen.
Any tip is welcome.
Regards

Thanks Martin, this is the Tor I installed and it connects well but as for over users, going in the net from firefox seems to be a problem ...

Hi Martin, you'll have to add 127.0.0.1 into the no proxy.
But I'm unable to get any web pages...
Did someone get ff working in proxy mode with tor ?

I can use Tor and Firefox (or SeaMonkey) with any unencrypted website like http:\\hobbes.nmsu.edu. But encrypted, like https:\\www.youtube.com will not work. The last version I know of that worked was Firefox 17. It was reported way back then, but nothing was ever done...

Hi David,
I just redo Vidalia torcc conf file and updated vidalia conf file.... Now, I can access HTTP: sites but like you, HTTPS: will not work !
ex: http://trac.netlabs.org/qtapps/wiki/QT4%20Networking < works
Here is what I set under Vidalia torcc
ControlPort 9051
ControlPortWriteToFile W:/home/.tor/port.conf
CookieAuthentication 1
DataDirectory W:/home/.tor
Log notice stdout
SocksPort 9050
Under conf:
I added
[Tor]
TorExecutable=W:\\Programs\\tor\\bin\\tor.exe
AuthenticationMethod=cookie <<== this which was missing here
Firefox proxy setting on port 9050
Socks5 and DNS checked
Under no proxy, I've added:
localhost,127.0.0.1
Since https will not work, what is the raison of Tor ?
How to acces https from firefox via tor ?
Update: I just tested to add under firefox config for DoH
network.trr.mode
network.trr.uri
But it didn't help to make https links working with tor !

2dryeo: I didn't tried HTTP proxies, but socks5 proxies like Tor or SSH tunnel, doesn't work.
You just create a SSH tunnel from local host to your.server.org:
ssh -D 2222 -N you@your.server.org
and use it as a Socks 5 proxy on address 127.0.0.1:2222, and it does not work
The same works fine in FF under Linux. I complained about that to Dmik, he says that it is
some hidden default proxy settings are not correct. But I checked all proxy settings in about:config
and did not found anythin suspicious. All was correct. So, this is indeed Socks proxy settings are broken.
As I said, everything is working fine under Linux. And I don't see why some defaults in OS/2 should be
different than in Linux.
And the same is with SSH and Tor.

Like Valery, I'm now thinking something is broken (TLS or else)
Here are proxy parms from under FF. All are well setted.

Perhaps test with this add-on, https://github.com/foxyproxy/firefox-extension/blob/master/archive/dist/foxyproxy-standard/4.6.5/foxyproxy_standard-4.6.5-fx%2Bsm%2Btb.xpi (https://github.com/foxyproxy/firefox-extension/blob/master/archive/dist/foxyproxy-standard/4.6.5/foxyproxy_standard-4.6.5-fx%2Bsm%2Btb.xpi)

This is not socks proxy but http proxy (no tor)

Modern FF work with tor socks only with help of os/2 tcp stack ability to route some traffic into socks proxy
d:\mptn\etc\socks.cfg :

This is not socks proxy but http proxy (no tor)
It does have a wizard for tor, not that it seems to work.
Have to test with a different browser I guess.
