## Configuration file for a typical Tor user ## Last updated 28 February 2019 for Tor 0.3.5.1-alpha. ## (may or may not work for much older or much newer versions of Tor.) ## ## Lines that begin with "## " try to explain what's going on. Lines ## that begin with just "#" are disabled commands: you can enable them ## by removing the "#" symbol. ## ## See 'man tor', or https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html, ## for more options you can use in this file. ## ## Tor will look for this file in various places based on your platform: ## https://support.torproject.org/tbb/tbb-editing-torrc/ ## Tor opens a SOCKS proxy on port 9050 by default -- even if you don't ## configure one below. Set "SOCKSPort 0" if you plan to run Tor only ## as a relay, and not make any local application connections yourself. SOCKSPort 0.0.0.0:9050 # Default: Bind to localhost:9050 for local connections. #SOCKSPort 192.168.0.1:9100 # Bind to this address:port too. HTTPTunnelPort 0.0.0.0:7050 ## Entry policies to allow/deny SOCKS requests based on IP address. ## First entry that matches wins. If no SOCKSPolicy is set, we accept ## all (and only) requests that reach a SOCKSPort. Untrusted users who ## can access your SOCKSPort may be able to learn about the connections ## you make. #SOCKSPolicy accept 192.168.0.0/16 #SOCKSPolicy accept6 FC00::/7 SOCKSPolicy accept * ## Logs go to stdout at level "notice" unless redirected by something ## else, like one of the below lines. You can have as many Log lines as ## you want. ## ## We advise using "notice" in most cases, since anything more verbose ## may provide sensitive information to an attacker who obtains the logs. ## ## Send all messages of level 'notice' or higher to @LOCALSTATEDIR@/log/tor/notices.log #Log notice file @LOCALSTATEDIR@/log/tor/notices.log ## Send every possible message to @LOCALSTATEDIR@/log/tor/debug.log #Log debug file @LOCALSTATEDIR@/log/tor/debug.log ## Use the system log instead of Tor's logfiles Log notice stdout ## To send all messages to stderr: #Log debug stderr ## Uncomment this to start the process in the background... or use ## --runasdaemon 1 on the command line. This is ignored on Windows; ## see the FAQ entry if you want Tor to run as an NT service. #RunAsDaemon 1 ## The directory for keeping all the keys/etc. By default, we store ## things in $HOME/.tor on Unix, and in Application Data\tor on Windows. #DataDirectory @LOCALSTATEDIR@/lib/tor ## The port on which Tor will listen for local connections from Tor ## controller applications, as documented in control-spec.txt. ControlPort 127.0.0.1:9051 ## If you enable the controlport, be sure to enable one of these ## authentication methods, to prevent attackers from accessing it. HashedControlPassword %HashedControlPassword% #CookieAuthentication 1 ############### This section is just for location-hidden services ### ## Once you have configured a hidden service, you can look at the ## contents of the file ".../hidden_service/hostname" for the address ## to tell people. ## ## HiddenServicePort x y:z says to redirect requests on port x to the ## address y:z. #HiddenServiceDir @LOCALSTATEDIR@/lib/tor/hidden_service/ #HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80 HiddenServiceDir /tordata/hidden_service/ # Fake service just to initialize the hidden service directory HiddenServicePort 8080 127.0.0.1:8080 ################ This section is just for relays ##################### # ## See https://community.torproject.org/relay for details. ## Required: what port to advertise for incoming Tor connections. #ORPort 9001 ## If you want to listen on a port other than the one advertised in ## ORPort (e.g. to advertise 443 but bind to 9090), you can do it as ## follows. You'll need to do ipchains or other port forwarding ## yourself to make this work. #ORPort 443 NoListen #ORPort 127.0.0.1:9090 NoAdvertise ## If you want to listen on IPv6 your numeric address must be explicitly ## between square brackets as follows. You must also listen on IPv4. #ORPort [2001:DB8::1]:9050 ## The IP address or full DNS name for incoming connections to your ## relay. Leave commented out and Tor will guess. #Address noname.example.com ## If you have multiple network interfaces, you can specify one for ## outgoing traffic to use. ## OutboundBindAddressExit will be used for all exit traffic, while ## OutboundBindAddressOR will be used for all OR and Dir connections ## (DNS connections ignore OutboundBindAddress). ## If you do not wish to differentiate, use OutboundBindAddress to ## specify the same address for both in a single line. #OutboundBindAddressExit 10.0.0.4 #OutboundBindAddressOR 10.0.0.5 ## A handle for your relay, so people don't have to refer to it by key. ## Nicknames must be between 1 and 19 characters inclusive, and must ## contain only the characters [a-zA-Z0-9]. ## If not set, "Unnamed" will be used. #Nickname ididnteditheconfig ## Define these to limit how much relayed traffic you will allow. Your ## own traffic is still unthrottled. Note that RelayBandwidthRate must ## be at least 75 kilobytes per second. ## Note that units for these config options are bytes (per second), not ## bits (per second), and that prefixes are binary prefixes, i.e. 2^10, ## 2^20, etc. #RelayBandwidthRate 100 KBytes # Throttle traffic to 100KB/s (800Kbps) #RelayBandwidthBurst 200 KBytes # But allow bursts up to 200KB (1600Kb) ## Use these to restrict the maximum traffic per day, week, or month. ## Note that this threshold applies separately to sent and received bytes, ## not to their sum: setting "40 GB" may allow up to 80 GB total before ## hibernating. ## ## Set a maximum of 40 gigabytes each way per period. #AccountingMax 40 GBytes ## Each period starts daily at midnight (AccountingMax is per day) #AccountingStart day 00:00 ## Each period starts on the 3rd of the month at 15:00 (AccountingMax ## is per month) #AccountingStart month 3 15:00 ## Administrative contact information for this relay or bridge. This line ## can be used to contact you if your relay or bridge is misconfigured or ## something else goes wrong. Note that we archive and publish all ## descriptors containing these lines and that Google indexes them, so ## spammers might also collect them. You may want to obscure the fact that ## it's an email address and/or generate a new address for this purpose. ## ## If you are running multiple relays, you MUST set this option. ## #ContactInfo Random Person ## You might also include your PGP or GPG fingerprint if you have one: #ContactInfo 0xFFFFFFFF Random Person ## Uncomment this to mirror directory information for others. Please do ## if you have enough bandwidth. #DirPort 9030 # what port to advertise for directory connections ## If you want to listen on a port other than the one advertised in ## DirPort (e.g. to advertise 80 but bind to 9091), you can do it as ## follows. below too. You'll need to do ipchains or other port ## forwarding yourself to make this work. #DirPort 80 NoListen #DirPort 127.0.0.1:9091 NoAdvertise ## Uncomment to return an arbitrary blob of html on your DirPort. Now you ## can explain what Tor is if anybody wonders why your IP address is ## contacting them. See contrib/tor-exit-notice.html in Tor's source ## distribution for a sample. #DirPortFrontPage @CONFDIR@/tor-exit-notice.html ## Uncomment this if you run more than one Tor relay, and add the identity ## key fingerprint of each Tor relay you control, even if they're on ## different networks. You declare it here so Tor clients can avoid ## using more than one of your relays in a single circuit. See ## https://support.torproject.org/relay-operators/multiple-relays/ ## However, you should never include a bridge's fingerprint here, as it would ## break its concealability and potentially reveal its IP/TCP address. ## ## If you are running multiple relays, you MUST set this option. ## ## Note: do not use MyFamily on bridge relays. #MyFamily $keyid,$keyid,... ## Uncomment this if you want your relay to be an exit, with the default ## exit policy (or whatever exit policy you set below). ## (If ReducedExitPolicy, ExitPolicy, or IPv6Exit are set, relays are exits. ## If none of these options are set, relays are non-exits.) #ExitRelay 1 ## Uncomment this if you want your relay to allow IPv6 exit traffic. ## (Relays do not allow any exit traffic by default.) #IPv6Exit 1 ## Uncomment this if you want your relay to be an exit, with a reduced set ## of exit ports. #ReducedExitPolicy 1 ## Uncomment these lines if you want your relay to be an exit, with the ## specified set of exit IPs and ports. ## ## A comma-separated list of exit policies. They're considered first ## to last, and the first match wins. ## ## If you want to allow the same ports on IPv4 and IPv6, write your rules ## using accept/reject *. If you want to allow different ports on IPv4 and ## IPv6, write your IPv6 rules using accept6/reject6 *6, and your IPv4 rules ## using accept/reject *4. ## ## If you want to _replace_ the default exit policy, end this with either a ## reject *:* or an accept *:*. Otherwise, you're _augmenting_ (prepending to) ## the default exit policy. Leave commented to just use the default, which is ## described in the man page or at ## https://support.torproject.org/relay-operators ## ## Look at https://support.torproject.org/abuse/exit-relay-expectations/ ## for issues you might encounter if you use the default exit policy. ## ## If certain IPs and ports are blocked externally, e.g. by your firewall, ## you should update your exit policy to reflect this -- otherwise Tor ## users will be told that those destinations are down. ## ## For security, by default Tor rejects connections to private (local) ## networks, including to the configured primary public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, ## and any public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on any interface on the relay. ## See the man page entry for ExitPolicyRejectPrivate if you want to allow ## "exit enclaving". ## #ExitPolicy accept *:6660-6667,reject *:* # allow irc ports on IPv4 and IPv6 but no more #ExitPolicy accept *:119 # accept nntp ports on IPv4 and IPv6 as well as default exit policy #ExitPolicy accept *4:119 # accept nntp ports on IPv4 only as well as default exit policy #ExitPolicy accept6 *6:119 # accept nntp ports on IPv6 only as well as default exit policy #ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed ## Uncomment this if you want your exit relay to reevaluate its exit policy on ## existing connections when the exit policy is modified. #ReevaluateExitPolicy 1 ## Bridge relays (or "bridges") are Tor relays that aren't listed in the ## main directory. Since there is no complete public list of them, even an ## ISP that filters connections to all the known Tor relays probably ## won't be able to block all the bridges. Also, websites won't treat you ## differently because they won't know you're running Tor. If you can ## be a real relay, please do; but if not, be a bridge! ## ## Warning: when running your Tor as a bridge, make sure than MyFamily is ## NOT configured. #BridgeRelay 1 ## By default, Tor will advertise your bridge to users through various ## mechanisms like https://bridges.torproject.org/. If you want to run ## a private bridge, for example because you'll give out your bridge ## address manually to your friends, uncomment this line: #BridgeDistribution none ## Configuration options can be imported from files or folders using the %include ## option with the value being a path. This path can have wildcards. Wildcards are ## expanded first, using lexical order. Then, for each matching file or folder, the following ## rules are followed: if the path is a file, the options from the file will be parsed as if ## they were written where the %include option is.
