If you want to run a local onion proxy (that is, you're a user, not
a node operator), go into src/config and look at the oprc file. (You
shouldn't have to edit any of it.) You can run an onion proxy with
"../or/or -f oprc". See below for how to use it.
If you want to run a node in the tor network, use the orkeygen program
(included) to generate a keypair:
orkeygen file-for-privkey file-for-pubkey
Then set up a config file for your node (start with sample-orrc
and edit the top portion). Then take a look at the routers.or file,
and mail arma@mit.edu an entry for your new router. You can start up
your router with "../or/or -f you-orrc". Remember that you won't be
able to authenticate to the other tor nodes until I've added you to
the directory.
First, set up a config file for your node (start with sample-orrc and
edit the top portion). Then run the node (as above, but with the new
config file) to generate keys. One of the generated files is your
'fingerprint' file. Mail it to arma@mit.edu. Remember that you won't
be able to authenticate to the other tor nodes until I've added you
to the directory.
