|
|
The current version of Tor and the Vidalia Graphical Tor Controller
|
|
support the ability to use any HTTPS or SOCKS proxy to get
|
|
access to the Tor Network. This means even if Tor is blocked by
|
|
your local network, open proxies can be safely used to connect to
|
|
the Tor Network and on to the uncensored Internet. A caveat is that
|
|
the open proxy host will see you are using Tor, but it will not be able
|
|
to read your traffic as it is still wrapped in layers of encryption.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
These steps assume you have a functional Tor/Vidalia configuration,
|
|
and you have found a list of HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5 proxies. (To
|
|
clarify, an HTTPS proxy is an HTTP proxy that also supports
|
|
CONNECT requests.)
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Open the Vidalia Control Panel, click on Settings.</li>
|
|
<li>Click Network. Select "I use a proxy to access the Internet".</li>
|
|
<li>On the Address line, enter the open proxy address. This can be a hostname or IP Address.</li>
|
|
<li>Enter the port for the proxy.</li>
|
|
<li>Generally, you do not need a Username and Password. If you do, enter the information in the proper fields.</li>
|
|
<li>Choose the Type of proxy you are using, whether HTTP/HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5.</li>
|
|
<li>Push the Ok button. Vidalia and Tor are now configured to use a proxy to access the rest of the Tor Network.</li>
|
|
</ol>
