Guide to install and manage tor on ubuntu 4.16 without vidalia

Posted by MD     Category: Informatica







Hi, as I was accustomed to vidalia, I had to endeavor to better manage tor on the new version! But let’s take it easy, first of all we install tor, open the terminal with ctrl + t:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Now it will open a text editor, copy and paste the following line at the bottom:
deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org xenial main
save and close the editor. Always on the terminal to:
gpg –keyserver keys.gnupg.net –recv 886DDD89 gpg –export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add – sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install deb.torproject.org-keyring

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install tor

then you have to install the proxy:

sudo apt-get install polipo

sudo gedit /etc/polipo/config
insert:

### Basic configuration
### *******************

# Uncomment one of these if you want to allow remote clients to
# connect:

# proxyAddress = "::0"        # both IPv4 and IPv6
# proxyAddress = "0.0.0.0"    # IPv4 only

proxyAddress = "127.0.0.1"
proxyPort = 8118

# If you do that, you'll want to restrict the set of hosts allowed to
# connect:

# allowedClients = "127.0.0.1, 134.157.168.57"
# allowedClients = "127.0.0.1, 134.157.168.0/24"

allowedClients = 127.0.0.1
allowedPorts = 1-65535

# Uncomment this if you want your Polipo to identify itself by
# something else than the host name:

proxyName = "localhost"

# Uncomment this if there's only one user using this instance of Polipo:

cacheIsShared = false

# Uncomment this if you want to use a parent proxy:

# parentProxy = "squid.example.org:3128"

# Uncomment this if you want to use a parent SOCKS proxy:

socksParentProxy = "localhost:9050"
socksProxyType = socks5

Well now you have to configure:
sudo gedit /etc/default/tor

We’re going to put in place of RUN_DAEMON=”yes”

RUN_DAEMON=”no”

Now to prevent the automatic start giving:
sudo systemctl disable tor.service

sudo update-rc.d tor disable

sudo update-rc.d -f tor remove

Now restart your PC! To graphically manage the start-tor instead of vidalia I created a small program with gui Download it here

Put it in your home or wherever you like is important not to move it if you want that it does not require a password:

sudo gedit /etc/sudoers OR sudo visudo

basically enter:
cacccacc
YourName ALL= NOPASSWD: /home/YourName/Tor-polipo.sh

Here now right-click on Tor-polipo.sh in your home, click properties, permissions enable the execution! For firefox you should get “Proxy selector” by Michele Pezza, to manage the proxy now easily go on plugins, manage proxy , add and copy the following configurations:





Good surfing Tor 😉

Firefox 43 add-on plugins enable disabled for invalid signature

Posted by MD     Category: Informatica




Hi, with the latest update of Firefox we noticed that the unsigned add-ins are not activated and there is a button to activate them.
You are stuck with the plug-in written: “plugin name” is not verified for use in firefox. Proceed with caution.
To overcome this problem and continue to use our old add-ons (seprate you trust those not controlled by the Mozilla team), you need to write the address bar:
about: config
then press enter, consent (I promise I will pay attention) now in the search bar write:
xpinstall.signatures.required
now this parameter is defaulti “ true ” you will put one-click “ false
then restart firefox and you will have your add-ons working

Good firefox 😛

Convert directly from a link in firefox PDF

Posted by MD     Category: Informatica





Hi today I’ll show you how covertire a page you are viewing in firefox pdf, unlike the virtual printers will have a true conversion, that we will find a pdf editable, with lots of opportunity to make a copy and paste of texts written in it.
First you need to download my script from here:Download
Then move the file to where it suits you better (no longer have to delete it) and give it execute permissions (right-click> properties> permissions)!
Now go back to firefox and download the plugin that will allow you to call my script if necessary: :
Download version 5.4 (tested on firefox 29) alternativ:
Download latest version from the official site and install it.
Also in firefox go to: Tools> Add-ons> Open With; click Preferences, once open, click on add (bottom right), now a window will open dovre’re going to choose my script “convert-html-to-pdf” that you downloaded before!
Then close the add-ons and if there is no appearance this icon Icona estensione Open With right-click on the top bar of firefox (the one containing the address bar www) and click on customize: move the icon to where we please!
To create the pdf, page (site) you are viewing, just click the icon and click “convert-html-to-pdf” and your desktop trovere pdf 😉
This system is very useful and in addition to being able to copy text from the created PDF file generated weighs very little (based on pages that will save it is still lighter than pages printed from other programs to the virtual press)

Have a nice day and the next guide;)

Manage two versions of Firefox each with its own configuration

Posted by MD     Category: Informatica





Hi today I will explain how to start firefox with diversified and separate personal settings

This could be useful when:
1) We would like to try a new version (pre-or beta) of firefox
2) You want to keep a clean configuration quick and keeping the other custom plugins and various

INSTRUCTIONS :

nb:If you want to download a new version go here

Click here to download Firefox

So first of all close firefox (so I advise you to print the page)

1) click contemporary “alt+F2”

write:                     firefox –profilemanager           ; dare invio

This will open a screen where you’re going to add a new profile ; es:    firefox-beta

fox-profile

Wanting can rename the default profile

es: Fox         ; save and close

2) Ora andremo a modificare il lanciatore di firefox nel menù

right click on; applications> edit menu

now we go in the internet and on the “firefox” do a click

Once selected clicciamo right “Edit”

in the command erase all (firefox% u)

putting: firefox-P Fox, click close

nb:instead of Fox’re going to put the name of the default profile or that we had renamed

3) Now we’re going to click on “new voice”

and we’re going to put:

A: for those who do not have another system in firefox

name = Firefox Fast

command = firefox-P Fox-fast

nb : instead of “Fox-fast” we’re going to put the second profile that we have so far

B: for anyone who has two firefox (one installed by default and the other unloaded by hand)

name = Firefox beta

command = /var/firefox/firefox-P-beta Firefox
nb : instead of “/ var / firefox /” we’re going to put the path to the folder where we extracted the. tar firefox we downloaded at the beginning, instead of “Firefox-beta” we’re going to put the second profile that we have so far

close the open windows
WELL NOW YOU ARE READY

Now in Applications> Internet will find two types of firefox

I recommend you can not start them both at the same time

then we can use the other one closed.

Good navigation “personalized”
