OpenVPN through TOR HOWTO

Privacy concerns ?

Thanks to riseup.net awesomeness, you can IRC through OpenVPN through TOR !

Please, first read https://help.riseup.net/en/vpn-howto.

Then, visist https://help.riseup.net/fr/donate#online-donations to fund them with a generous $5/month (more if you can !)

Finally, configure your openvpn to connect to riseup.net VPN via TOR :
Assuming you have TOR running on localhost, port 1080, your openvpn configuration file should look like :

client
proto tcp # needed for socks-proxy                               socks-proxy localhost 1080
socks-proxy-retry
dev tun
auth-user-pass ~/riseup.txt
remote vpn.riseup.net 1194
ca ~/RiseupCA.pem
remote-cert-tls server
script-security 2
user nobody
group nobody
persist-tun
persist-key
route-nopull
route 50.22.136.18 #freenode
route 89.16.176.16 #freenode                                                        

Enjoy !
