Hey,

iam trying to set up Tor Service under Fedora 37.

Hello,

ich want to set up Tor Service for all my Network Traffic.

I followed the Guide https://community.torproject.org/rel…bridge/fedora/

But Tor Service is crashing on startup

Journalctl just saying:

May 24 05:49:14 fedora systemd[1]: Failed to start tor.service - Anonymizing overlay netw>
░░ Subject: A start job for unit tor.service has failed
░░ Defined-By: systemd
░░ Support: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
░░ 
░░ A start job for unit tor.service has finished with a failure.
░░ 
░░ The job identifier is 19889 and the job result is failed.

Anyone know how to get Tor Service running?

Transparent torification has knows safety issues and it is relatively simple only for transit traffic, otherwise it becomes quite complicated.
Also keep in mind, that Tor only supports TCP and DNS, so you cannot torify other protocols such as UDP, ICMP, etc.
It is best to study the relevant documentation to understand pros and cons of possible setup scenarios.

You need to collect and analyze the error log for a specific service.
