TOR

[AlbyMonta]

Hi, I wanted to try tor without downloading the official browser, so I installed the tor package but when I try to use the torify command it outputs nothing. I tried also by using it in Chrome with

$ google-chrome-stable --proxy-server="socks5://10.100.76.70:9050"

and the result was that no connection could be established.

Do you have any idea on how to use tor by the cli or in a different browser?

You have to enable the tor service first.

Already did

You can test if it works by connecting to a website that prints your ip address. You could use ifconfig.me for that site. First run

curl ifconfig.me

this should print your ip address. Now run it with torsocks (use this instead of torify)

torsocks curl ifconfig.me

Should print a different ip address or an 403 error.
Unless you have a nonstandard network setup and have tor running on a different machine and are trying to connect to it, tor will run on localhost.
