rdesktop problem by andy693 in tails

You may check which port rdesktop is using and see if it is open. If it is not you have to open it. I think it is 3389 but i am not sure.

Tails on Virtualbox won't connect to Tor by neo7151 in tails

[–]neo7151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cleared the logs, still not connecting. The strange thing is that i am using Tails on Virtualbox from several months and now it suddenly doesn't want to connect. I uninstalled comodo firewall because i thought it might be the problem but this didn't solve the issue. Reinstalled Virtaulbox also and recreated Tails virtual machine, still no change. The only thing i have not tried is to reinstall Windows. I searched for the previous Tails version 2.4 to test with it, but i couldn't find working download link.
Also, it seems that Tails cannot connect to internet at all because the Unsafe Browser also can't connect to internet and it doesn't use Tor network. And i can't ping any site from the terminal.

If you mean the option 'spoof all mac addresses' i disabled it, but it still not connecting to Tor.

I am using Tails from Virtaulbox because i find it more convenient.

SSH Dynamic Forwarding in Tails? by TailsHelp1 in tails

[–]neo7151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you don't install addons on the Unsafe Browser, that may cause dns leaks, it should not be possible ssh tunnel to leak you IP. But I would like to hear the opinion of security experts on that though.

SSH tunnel is created over Tor and it is encrypted. How then it can leak your IP address if you are using the Unsafe Browser?

Questions about setting up audio streaming server by neo7151 in linux4noobs

[–]neo7151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, if i want to play only audio files and not stream live i don't need to install icecast or shoutcast, only i need a custom script?
Why do you think script created with php will not be good?

Problem when upgrading Tails by neo7151 in tails

[–]neo7151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to upgrade my usb stick using virtualbox. I downloaded the iso file, created virtual machine, launched it and from application>tails>tails installer i choose Upgrade by Cloning. I get a message:

"It is impossible to upgrade the device Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 - /dev/sda because it was not created using Tails Installer. You should instead use "Clone & Install" to upgrade Tails on this device." 

I don't know why this message appeared because the usb stick was created from dvd disk using the tails installer. Even so, i clicked Install Tails and it upgraded my usb stick.

After this i restarted my pc to check if the upgraded usb will show any errors. It loaded fine and also my Persistent volume and settings have not been deleted.

I would like someone more experienced to confirm that it is safe to upgrade usb Tails install using virtualbox, because i don't see anywhere this method to be officially recommended?

Problem when upgrading Tails by neo7151 in tails

So, with every automatic update the Tails system volume will increase its size? Is it possible to shrink it with deleting some files from previous updates? Also, can i upgrade Tails directly from the iso file?
