Problems with Tor,
- Tor browser not launching in super user and other account
-I was having tor + anonsurf problems for a month or so but it somehow worked itself out after updating one day
-I can see onion circuits on super user account but not on other account, it says not connecting to tor
-Not sure anonsurf is working correctly when
-What are the defualt socks 4 & socks 5 ports for Tor?
-I’m reading alot of misinformation on the internet + ignorance on my behalf, which I think lead to these problems. - From what I understand when using anonsurf your dns records are pointed to parrots dns when I’m not usng anonsurf, my dns records are pointing to my ISP? So when prepending my DNS records + changing them back to 12.0.0.1 before starting anonsurf? I had been changing them to two OPENNIC servers.
