https://people.torproject.org/~dcf/pt-bundle/tor-browser-snowflake-turbotunnel-kcp-9.5a8-20200319/ https://people.torproject.org/~dcf/pt-bundle/tor-browser-snowflake-turbotunnel-quic-9.5a8-20200319/ Here is a small update to the experimental Snowflake packages. They fix a hang that would happen if tor opened more than one connection through the pluggable transport client. More details: https://bugs.torproject.org/33519 To enable Snowflake the first time you run the browser: * Click "Configure" * Click "Tor is censored in my country" * Click "Select a built-in bridge" * Select "snowflake" from the menu If the browser is already running: * Go to about:preferences#tor (open the Preferences menu then click Tor on the left side) * Look at the "Bridges" section * Click "Use a bridge" * Click "Select a built-in bridge" * Select "snowflake" from the menu These packages are set not to automatically install updates, because an update would remove the features of the branch we are testing. The browser will still download updates and ask to install them, so you'll have to click "Not Now" whenever it asks. You can see what's going on by watching the log file: linux: Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Tor/pt_state/snowflake-client.log windows: Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Tor\pt_state\snowflake-client.log mac: Tor Browser.app/Contents/Resources/TorBrowser/Tor/pt_state/snowflake-client.log Here's a guide to reading the log file: Traffic Bytes (in|out): 0 | 972 Traffic Bytes (in|out): 52457 | 7270 If the number on the left stays at 0, the proxy isn't working. If it's nonzero, the proxy is working. WebRTC: No messages received for 30s -- closing stale connection redialing on same connection This means that your proxy died and the system is switching to a new one. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
