Hi,

I need to run Tor Browser as another user..

So here what I'm doing under, MX Linux ( Debian, SysVinit, xfce)

#as root, in a terminal under xfce

useradd --create-home --system --shell /usr/sbin/nologin TorUser
# btw --system or not ?

tar -xf tor-browser-linux...tar -C /opt --totals
chown -R TorUser:TorUser /opt/tor-browser

runuser -u TorUser -- /opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop

return

Launching './Browser/start-tor-browser --detach'...

But nothing happen, and I don't see any process for TorUser

any ideas ?

Hi,

I'm looking for a E2EE and decentralized (or self hosted) videoconferencing that would have the following feature

• video or voice-only call
• share screen
• files transfer (optional)
• text chat

( all of it E2EE )

I'm considering Jitsi meet, that seem the meet those requirements

Do you know better alternatives or do you have remarks about Jitsi ?

Thanks.

The WiFi dot is red !

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

Hi,

by doing a

ps aux | grep UserName

The output do not keep the LF[^1] 😡

I've found some solution online by they involve 3 or more pipe | !

On my side, I've made this

ps -fp $(pgrep -d, -u UserName)

But still I found it not super human readable.

Is their a native way with ps to filter users ? or to grep it but the keep the LF ?

Hi,

I've seen some tutorial to create EdDSA key with Gnupg

gpg --full-gen-key

and it's supposed to allow me to create ECC key, but I see only

Please select what kind of key you want:
(1) RSA and RSA (default)
(2) DSA and Elgamal
(3) DSA (sign only)
(4) RSA (sign only)
(14) Existing key from card
Your selection?\

gpg --version show:

...
gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.27
Supported algorithms:
Pubkey: RSA, ELG, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, EDDSA
...

Any idea what's wrong ?

Hi,

I would like to use Gnupg to encrypt, sign... documents.

I've downloaded the Manual, it's quite extensive. So the learning curve is proportional :)

I've tried the GPA GUI, but with it, it seem impossible to generate an ECC key..

So what would be your recommendation to be able to generate ECC keys, be able to encrypt, sign etc.. with or without GUI.

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm currently struggling to connect to TOR (see my previous posts)

Therefore I'm looking in the documentation and in the support community. (and been already greatly helped trough lemmy :) )

I was considering to use also the official TOR forum

But I'm surprised that for a project that claim to protect users anonymity and freedom of WWW to use a forum that

• request an email address[^one]
• That a moderator [^two] need to approve the account
• that each new post need to be approved !

So I can't use it[^one] , hopefully their is Lemmy :D

[^one]: Do you know a lot of email service that do not require to provide a proof of ID ? (phone number, ISP email etc..) ? So hard to keep anonymous in those conditions..

.

[^two]: Moderation do not exist, it is simply censorship, see the work of Noam Chomsky
"If the freedom of expression is limited to the ideas that we like, it is not freedom of expression."

Hi,

I would like to display the new lines of /var/log/messages that contain either IN_MyText or OUT_MyText (no matter where in the line)

I've tried

tail -fn 3 /var/log/messages | grep --color --line-buffered -e "(IN|OUT)_MyText"

But the output stay blank, when it should not...

Any ideas ?
