Hi fellas,

I found an interesting docker image on Docker Hub, dedicated to TOR hidden service deployement. The README is self explainatory and worth a try. :wink:

Take your chance to create the new silk road :stuck_out_tongue:

Best,

Hm… frankly I’m not convinced that you need Docker to solve such a simple task. For instance, on Arch Linux it’s as simple as:

  1. Install nginx or any service you need to hide:
sudo pacman -S nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx
sudo systemctl start nginx
  1. Install tor:
sudo pacman -S tor torsocks
  1. Modify /etc/tor/torrc:
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/
HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80
# optional: one more service
HiddenServicePort 22 127.0.0.1:22
  1. Start tor service automatically:
sudo systemctl enable tor
sudo systemctl start tor
  1. Don’t forget to backup /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/
