Have you looked at the qubes-tor package and www.qubes-os.org/doc/torvm? - that page is removed from the menu but still available. The qubes-tor package is OK but with some tweaking makes a solid replacement for Whonix gw - certainly for live images and machines with limited RAM. imo the decision to deprecate that package and then remove all reference to it from the docs was a mistake. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
