Step 1: Install Tor ('apt-get install tor' on Debian)
Step 2: Create a directory where the HS data will be stored
('mkdir /var/lib/tor/ssh-hs && chown debian-tor.debian-tor /var/lib/tor/ssh-hs'
on Debian, as root)
Step 3: Add the following lines to the Tor configuration file:
(/etc/tor/torrc on Debian):
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/ssh-hs/
HiddenServicePort 22 127.0.0.1:22
Step 4: Make Tor reload its configuration file ('service tor reload') or
simply restart Tor ('service tor restart').
Step 5: Read the hidden service address from
/var/lib/tor/ssh-hs/hostname, write it down somewhere.
Once Tor has had a couple of minutes to get the service descriptor onto the
network, try to connect ('usewithtor ssh your_hs_address.onion').
It's definitely not more complicated than setting up a VPN or much more
complicated than using SSH in general.
