[tor-talk] app -> socks5-openvpn -> socks5-tor ?

2015-07-08 Thread grarpamp
I don't think openvpn supports socks5 on its input yet. Anyone know of a shim to put in front of openvpn that will accept socks5 on its input and send to an IP nexthop / interface as its output (thus making it configurable to point into openvpn)? Already possible with routing / vm's, but that's a

I've had issues for a long while now, which is why I'm just typically not on OFTC at all (because all connections fail as they're routed through Tor). Unfortunately, the trade-off of maintaining location security but not being available on IRC is one I have to make. Worth noting that OFTC d

Tor access at Freenode has been taken down for 6 months because of abuse though: https://twitter.com/freenodestaff/status/564848187710906368 https://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml#tor As for OFTC, it's just exit node luck. Maybe if you know what node is it, just exclude it on your torrc. El 09/0
