First add the Tor repository to your package sources
sudo su -c "echo 'deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org '$(lsb_release -c | cut -f2)' main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/torproject.list"
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -
and install it
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tor deb.torproject.org-keyring
then add your current user to the debian-tor group to be able to use cookie authentication.
sudo usermod -a -G debian-tor $(whoami)
Now log out and back in, then edit /etc/tor/torrc to enable the control port, enable cookie authentication and make the auth file group readable.
sudo sed -i 's/#ControlPort 9051/ControlPort 9051/g' /etc/tor/torrc
sudo sed -i 's/#CookieAuthentication 1/CookieAuthentication 1/g' /etc/tor/torrc
sudo su -c "echo 'CookieAuthFileGroupReadable 1' >> /etc/tor/torrc"
Now restart the Tor service.
sudo systemctl restart tor.service
If you've configured Tor as previously described there is nothing more you need to do. When you start zend without any command line options e.g. ./zend it will automatically create a HiddenService and be reachable via the Tor network and clearnet. The node should have created a file ~/.zen/onion_private_key, this file stores the private key of your HiddenService address.
When you use ./zen-cli getnetworkinfo you should see that your node is reachable as a HiddenService like so:
[...]
{
"name": "onion",
"limited": false,
"reachable": true,
"proxy": "127.0.0.1:9050",
"proxy_randomize_credentials": true
}
],
"relayfee": 0.00000100,
"localaddresses": [
{
"address": "lbfuusf2bg5e2t3j.onion",
"port": 9033,
"score": 4
}
[...]
You can now give out your onion address, nodes will then be able to connect to it :D
edit your zen.conf and add
proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
onlynet=tor
addnode=arrdjplw5rtjpyqm.onion
addnode=gowy6xruajuu2tln.onion
addnode=ot35wzoyrnaurgz6.onion
addnode=etqmwbdd4u6kyxlq.onion
Restart zend and your node will officially be hidden and outta sight :D
