  • Did you try searching info about this issue on search engine?
    Yes. I searched on multiple engines but I couldn’t find an answer to the issues below.

4. How did you get this error? Are there any steps to procedure it?

I am having a number of issues with anonsurf that have only emerged after some recente updates.

1. I have always started and stopped anonsurf with the command line. Now I am getting a message that ‘anonsurf’ is not recognised. So, can I still start/stop anonsurf with the command line?
   Since this change the following now happens.
2. I can’t access the internet unless anonsurf is running. If it is not running the internet is not available, even for me to update. It won’t connect. I have virtualbox installed and the distros on virtualbox however CAN access the internet if anonsurf is off. But within the host which is Parrot, no internet under these circumstances - I have to activate anonsurf. This has worked previously without a problem but for some reason it decided to stop working.

I will be grateful if someone can tell me what is happening and how it may be fixed. I do not want, nor need to have anonsurf running at all times.

Please run sudo apt install anonsurf-cli

Please run sudo dnstool static opennic
