Download Tor browser.
cd $HOME/Downloads tar -xvf tor-browser-*.tar.xz
Read about tor-and-iptables and check if you allow these:
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -d 127.0.0.0/8 ! -i lo -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable
To run multiple instances of Tor at the same time check the <SocksPort> and <ControlPort>.
The section below is documented in: tor-browser_en-US/Browser/start-tor-browser.
# SETTING NAME VALUE # network.security.ports.banned [...],<SocksPort>,<ControlPort> # network.proxy.socks 127.0.0.1 # network.proxy.socks_port <SocksPort> # extensions.torbutton.inserted_button true # extensions.torbutton.launch_warning false # extensions.torbutton.loglevel 2 # extensions.torbutton.logmethod 0 # extensions.torlauncher.control_port <ControlPort> # extensions.torlauncher.loglevel 2 # extensions.torlauncher.logmethod 0 # extensions.torlauncher.prompt_at_startup false # extensions.torlauncher.start_tor false
The default SocksPort=9150 and ControlPort=9151.
For the second Tor instance set them to 9160 and 9161.
