I've just noticed that even though "Tor Control Panel" shows 'Connected to Tor 
network', when I check the status of the 'Time Synchronization Monitor' widget 
it's stuck on:
 "Last message from sys-whonix sdwdate: Initial time fetching in progress..."
for both whonix-sys and anon-whonix VM's. 
Strangely, the status doesn't get resolved. 
And as I mentioned the Tor-Control-Panel continues showing as "connected to Tor 
network". 

Such observation suggests there might be a problem with the 
TIme-Synchronisation-Monitor, or should I say, with sys-whonix obtaining valid 
timestamp in order to get started. 

Hopefully this additional comment would help someone with suggesting a 
solution. 

Thank you.

Thanks for pointing to related link and the fix. I executed the command, 
rebooted and also played with changes to previous qubes-available kernel 
version, although all within 4.19.* range. (*43, *67, *71). Unfortunately 
successful connection has been made yet. 
Are there more hints for potential solutions? Thanks.

Might be https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5331. TL;DR
version, try:

qvm-features sys-whonix ipv6 ''

and restart.

[qubes-users] qubes whonix - Tor Control Panel says connection established but I can't browse TOR

2019-09-22 Thread cubecub 

Hi, 
I have a problem with whonix on qubes 4.0.1 - manually upgraded to whonix-15, 
fedora-30, kernel 4.19. 

When whonix-sys networking VM is configured to my VPN VM, tor connection gets 
established which allows me to use TOR browser in 'anon-whonix'. Everything 
works fine, but... that's not the recommend way of connecting to TOR. When 
possible 'whonix-sys' should be set-up using ISP line directly ISP (non-VPN) so 
that Tor establishes the route between its 3 levels of nodes without having VPN 
server as a fixed entry/exit point. 

And that's what I'm having a proplem with, unexpectedly. When I set up 
'sys-firewall' or 'sys-net' as netVM for 'whonix-sys' I can't get 'anon-whonix' 
to establish Tor Browser connection, can't access any website. Even whonix-sys 
'Tor Control Panel' struggles with establishing Tor connection. This is highly 
surprising as I don't live in a country where ISP's prevent any onion/tor 
traffic. It should all work fine. 

I then tried playing with various clock settings on my host (dom0) to match the 
clock in UTC in sys-whonix (timedatectl command). Unfortunately the problem 
persists - I am able to connect to Tor via VPN VM but not directly via 'open' 
ISP sys-net or sys-firewall VM. 
I have an impression the problem started after whonix upgrade to version 15 and 
qubes introduction of the clock-synchronisation-monitor. I might be completely 
wrong about it, it's just the timing of the issue coincides with the introduced 
qubes changes.

Does anyone had a similar problem? Or better still, does anyone know the 
solution and how to fix it?
 Please help or point me to the right directly. 

Many thanks,
cubecub
