Re: You think you can hide your ip?

Why not building a small linux system image for one of those embedded
systems?
i suggested this before..

(just copied from one of my old mails)
--

for example:
http://www.pcengines.ch/wrap.htm
(it is a little embedded pc - quite cheap - form factor of a normal home
use router)
wireless mini-pci cards are optional - so it could be used as a wireless
access point, too.

the whole thing should be configurable via webinterface, like for example
the m0n0wall linux firewall (they also use the wrap hardware):
(see here: http://m0n0.ch/wall/ )

features should include:
- webadministration
- possibility to run as server, client, hidden service (forward to local
network)
- built in proxy
- ...
- independent trust system (external directory service or something)


(if the box images would be precompiled they could be more trustworthy,
of course sources should be availiable, too)

only a quick idea - you probably have even more ideas...
perhaps we should look at the m0n0wall project... i think there are some
ideas realized, which could
be used for a tor-in-a-box project, too:

quoute from m0n0wall:
" m0n0wall is probably *the first UNIX system that has its boot-time
configuration done with PHP*,
rather than the usual shell scripts, and that has *the entire system
configuration stored in XML format*."
