Re: Faking a local connection to services running on exit node
Perhaps this can help: https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#ExitEnclave In short ExitPolicyRejectPrivate is set to 1 by default preventing access to any local services. If you want some of your services to be accessible, follow the example in the link. Brian Mearns skrev: I have a relay running on the same system as several other services. Some of these services only accept connections from the localhost (or otherwise give special privileges to localhost) . If I allow my relay to be an exit node, someone attempting to connect to these services through Tor will appear to be coming from localhost, right? Is there anyway to prevent this while still allowing my relay to exit to these services? Thanks, Brian

Thanks.

I would like to know how to change the circuit that Tor is using (like the option Use a New Identity at Vidalia control panel). But I want to make this only using command line, running Linux. Is that possible? Thanks in advanced Thiago First you have to enable the control port in torrc: ControlPort 9051 HashedControlPassword $PASSWORDHASH The $PASSWORDHASH can be created with: tor --hash-password $PASSWORD Then do: echo AUTHENTICATE \$PASSWORD\\r\nNEWNYM\r\nQUIT\r\n | netcat localhost 9051
