-Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that want
-to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using Tor can help
-you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC,
-SSH, and other applications that use the TCP protocol. Tor also
-provides a platform on which software developers can build new
-applications with built-in anonymity, safety, and privacy features.
-
-This script requires a 'tor' user/group to exist before running.
-The recommended UID/GID is 220. You can create these like so:
- groupadd -g 220 tor
- useradd -u 220 -g 220 -c "The Onion Router" -d /dev/null \
- -s /bin/false tor
-
-You can pass another user/group to the script; this is however, less
-safe:
- TOR_USER=nobody TOR_GROUP=nogroup sh tor.SlackBuild
-
-The following can be used to start/stop tor automatically:
-In file /etc/rc.d/rc.local, add following
- if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.tor ]; then
- /etc/rc.d/rc.tor start
- fi
-
-In /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown, add following
- if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.tor ]; then
- /etc/rc.d/rc.tor stop
- fi
-
-torsocks is an optional dependency. See README.SLACKWARE for more
-information.
-
-optional dependencies:
-- nacl may provide faster performance on 32-bit systems.
-
-Take a look at README.SLACKWARE for important notes and read also very
-carefully the essential hints that tor developers give you
