Description:

TorK is an Anonymity Manager for KDE.

For information about Tor: http://tor.eff.org

TorK allows you to configure, run and update Tor. It also allows you to view the Tor network and choose how you would like to interact with the network.

TorK contains a number of unique/useful features:

* A graph of your tor and non-tor traffic.
* A quickstart page for launching torified applications.
        See https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=159836
* A hidden services wizard that allows you to create and publish hidden
services.
* A drag-and-drop view of the Tor network. Create, modify and close circuits.
Attach and detach streams manually from circuits. Click on servers to view
their full details.
* Exit node blocking/preferring by country and server name.
 See
https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=159836&ssid=45119
* Tor and Non-Tor traffic logs - showing you the traffic that is going through
Tor and the traffic that is not. The Tor traffic log maintains a record of
the circuit you used for each connection. Both logs are maintained in memory
only and can be flushed by the user at any time.
* A turn-on-and-off-able mini-view that shows you the traffic currently going
through Tor - including destination, status, and exit node's name and
country.
* Passive pop-ups alerting you to important Tor events, such as changes to  
your server status, DNS leaks, errors reported by Tor.
* Quick configuration - six default configurations available for getting Tor
running the simple and easy way.
* Full access to all Tor configuration options.

Hi,

first of all thanks for this outstanding application. It makes life much easier when using TOR.

When using custom settings and starting tor then tor reports an error and does not start. Tork generates an invalid tor config file. The problem is missing blanks. Here is the fix:

In file tork.cpp:
Quote:
...
bool tork::noSpecialProcessing(const KConfigSkeletonItem* it, QTextStream &ts)
{

if (((*it).name() == "DirListenAddress") ||
((*it).name() == "ORListenAddress")){
( ts << (*it).name() << " 0.0.0.0:" <<
(*it).property().toString() << "\n");
return false;
...

Note the additional blank before the first 0 inside the string "0.0.0.0:". Without this blank the line is not correctly formatted for tor.

Excellent application. I recently read an article in Linux Journal and tried to get tor working with Firefox. It seems I didn't get everything quite right. So it is a pleasure to be able to use this app as it installed easily and works well in my OpenSuSE-10.3 distro.

I'll watch out for any bugs but so far so good.

P.S. Nice Work :-)

Hi everybody,
this is just to say that IMHO TorK is the most advanced KDE application when it comes to usability and user interaction. I'm so astonished about the great amount of the small UI details they have developed! IMHO it should take part in KDE apps award alongside K3B, Digikam and friends!

Not work if tor !not run in local machine.
i use tor and privoxy in (lan) remote machine.

"Tor's Authentication Cookie Not Available.
Tor said: Couldn't find authentication cookie in /home/john/.tor!
This means: If you stored it elsewhere, please copy it to the suggested location above"

back to old "0.18" :/

you should probably re-run the first run wizard. 0.19 enforces cookie authentication by default for local instances and recommends password-authentication for remote. i'm pretty sure it will work if you re-run the first run wizard. let me know by email if it doesn't.

Hallo people, I have a problem when processing commands "./configure && make && make install"... after some time there is a error message produced:

"checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!"

I installed dummy package "x-dev", but still get this message.

Advices like "you have to install all packages with "X" and "devel" in the name does not work with me, I simply do not understand...

Can anyone possibly help me?
