!! Installation / configuration

First [install the tor|tor-install-log.txt] software on the scharnhorst host (FC5). 
\\I first tried my CentOS 4.5 host, but I could not get the software installed, could not find proper rpms, could not find rpms to install yum either.

! Port forwarding 9001

The ORPort has been configured on 9001, this port configured in my routermodem, so that this port is forwarde to scharnhorst (10.0.0.102)


! Edit /etc/tor/torrc

The following options were uncommented or changed from default:
{{{
ORPort 9001
ContactInfo harry.metske@gmail.com
Nickname TorComputerhok
Address scharnhorst.computerhok.nl
RunAsDaemon 1
Log info file /var/log/tor/debug.log
SocksPort 9050
}}}

! IP address changed ?!

Now I have had IP address 88.211.133.30 for about 3 years now, and it has changed since ???, I now have __ 195.241.35.97 __ . 
\\I don't know if this has anything to do with me setting up a tor node , anyway I changed my CNAME record of www.computerhok.nl, and also torrc:Address to 195.241.35.97.


! Verifying your node

When you tor decides that it's reachable, it will upload a "server descriptor" to the directories. This will let clients know what address, ports, keys, etc your relay is using. 
\\Check it [here|http://moria.seul.org:9032/tor/status/authority]

! Statistics

I found [torstatus.cyberphunk.org|http://torstatus.cyberphunk.org/index.php] , it shows quite a lot of information, it also tells you if you are using tor yourself.
\\It gives an exensive lists of tor nodes with a lot attributes like
* hostname
* ORPort
* DIRPort
* uptime
* tor version and os
* bandwith info

There you can also zoom in to [your own tor node|http://torstatus.cyberphunk.org/router_detail.php?FP=271e32ce445ae1b4d5aa0d7a85ad436f0273067e]

! Install Vidalia

Install of the Vidalia GUI

\\Open up System->Preferences->Software Sources and enter these repositories into 3rd Party Repositories:
{{{deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/adnarim/ubuntu gutsy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/adnarim/ubuntu gutsy main}}}

Then: ''sudo apt-get install vidalia''

\\Th vialia software cannot show me the stats of a tor node running on another server, so I uninstalled it again.
