Re: Problems Continue while trying to set up a TOR Private Relay



Andrew

According to everything I read on the Internet, Apple routers do not support UPnP.  Just to check further I went through the settings on the Airport Utility and see nothing about UPnP.  Please let me know if I'm missing something.  UPnP would really simplify things!

Re the Apple firewall I have set the permission to allow connections to Vidalia/TOR from the beginning.

Thanks
Jim

Since you're all Mac, it's easy.  Enable UPNP on the Airport. Tell
Vidalia to auto-configure it.  All your port forwarding and such is
done.

Your Mac has its own firewall that needs to allow tor and
vidalia to talk on various ports (9001, 9030).  When you start up
Vidalia, Finder will prompt you for "Do you want to allow connections
to tor?" Click yes.  It may ask you again for Vidalia. Click yes.

In theory, that's it.  I just setup the same scenario on my testing Mac
and it worked just like that.
