Hi Geoff,
yes… That was exactly the problem! I falsely assumed that Polipo would
automatically read the config file from that directory, but that obviously
wasn't right. Now it's also clear why Vidalia worked whereas my shell commands
didn't, as Vidalia perhaps calls Polipo with the right parame
What about user-IDs, ownerships, and permissions? If it works when

actually works when Polipo is launched via the GUI, the problems only appear
when I launch it from the command line. Also, Tor is set as the parent proxy in
my Polipo config, but for some reas
I have Linux rather than a Mac, but the example of my config files
might still help you. No matter what your operating system is, you
have to point your browser at Polipo and Tor and you have to point
Polipo to Tor, in terms of addresses and port numbers. What I know
about this is thanks
Hi all,
so, I'd like to use Tor on my Mac, and access the web through its network of
servers. So far so good, but as I'm familiar with Linux and the shell, I don't
want to bring up Tor using the Vidalia GUI, but rather call it from Terminal
and later on have both Tor and Polipo launched as daemo
