Hello list, I am a little bit confused, how to correctly configure tor in debian. Maybe you can make something more clear.
This is my environment: I have installed tor tor-geoip tor-data privoxy polipo vidalia 1. Vidalia is starting the tor daemon = ok 2. privoxy is configured as in the doc been told and running = ok 3. polipo is configured and running 4. the browser (konqueror) is pointing to 127.0.0.1:8123 Due to http://check.torproject.org it is all correctly configured. But now my questions: 1. Is polipo a successor for the tor daemon? 2. Do I need polipo AND privoxy AND tor? Or what is the required combination? I understood, that polipo and privoxy are both proxies, whilst polipo is listening to port 8123, and privoxy is listening to port 8118. Are they both forwarding to tor at port 9050? Or 9051? 3. Which is the optimal combination of packages and configuration when I want to use tor? I will be pleased, when someone can tell me the difference (advantages/disadvantages) among privoxy, polipo and tor. Thank you very much.
