It works really well. Although it does get bogged down when you run gtk-gnutella through it for 48 hours :) All the masking means is that the ebuild hasn't been tested enough. It worked for me on several different platforms, though. Give it a whirl. Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I don't offer it up to the world, but I have it accessible on my internal lan through privoxy. privoxy listens on 0.0.0.0:8118 and passes everything on to tor. I suppose you could do the same with tor, I just haven't tried it. Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
