 |
|
Hi everyone,
I'm having some problems getting tor working. I've been following the the instructions on the wiki http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Tor but there is no information I have found for configuring
which interface tor uses when it starts. When I start tor it tried to start eth0 and dhcpcd. I'm using wireless so the device I am using is wlan0. here is the output when I try and start tor;
| Code: |
tux ~ # /etc/init.d/tor start
* Bringing up interface eth0
* No configuration specified; defaulting to DHCP
* dhcp ...
* Running dhcpcd ...
dhcpcd[4296]: version 5.2.12 starting
dhcpcd[4296]: eth0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd[4296]: timed out
dhcpcd[4296]: allowing 8 seconds for IPv4LL timeout
dhcpcd[4296]: timed out [ !! ]
* ERROR: net.eth0 failed to start
* ERROR: cannot start tor as net.eth0 would not start
|
How do I make it use wlan0 which is already configured. Do I need to edit a specific file?

Setting the following in /etc/rc.conf should help, although you should check the documentation on the effect of this setting.

rc_strict_depend="NO"
