 |
|
If i run tor, i see in syslog sometimes lines like this: | Code: | | Jan 28 19:11:58 vm82 Tor[11043]: Heartbeat: Tor's uptime is 17:59 hours, with 2 circuits open. I've sent 12.87 MB and received 384.34 MB. |
How can i get this "status messages" by command line?
How can i see and be save that all traffic include dns requests goes by the tor network? |

There's a section about that in the wiki, but it's good to read the entire page, which, btw, is an excellent resource considering the amount of garbage there's out there.
