First of all, I'm really new to Ubuntu and Tor. I've been trying to get tor working for days now and I can't seem to do it. Right now I'm trying to remove all remnants of tor/vidalia/polipo from my computer so I can start fresh again. I've uninstalled vidalia and tor from the software center, but there's still two folders in the /etc directory (privoxy and polipo).
Further investigation indicates that the problem lies in the privoxy.service file.This file, included in the latest version of the package fails: [Unit]

I've installed Fedora for the first time - it seems quite fluid.
Having installed Privoxy, I'm having to manually start it every time I boot to KDE desktop.
What do I need to configure to Privoxy for auto start?
Have set proxy server to 127.0.0.1 / 8118 in Firefox.
I am running a basic squid + privoxy combo for web caching/filtering proxy and it works fine. I'm basically running a stock config w/ a few minor edits to allow the relevant hosts access etc.
Hello,
I'm looking for a solution to route my SSH traffic through a proxy. Here is my setup:
Laptop --> ssh traffic --> remote ssh server (owned by me) --> privoxy (socks5) --> TOR.
As you can see, my main goal is this. I want to ssh into my remote server, and then all the outbound webtraffic generated on the remote server must go via TOR.
