Hi @vstavrinov, are you using the latest version of Nipe?
The config file of nipe are in ./config, maybe the events in /root are from Tor. Can you provide more informations to me?
Thanks.
./config nothing to do with issue - it is run time configuration. The problem rises at installation stage what You require to run as root so it writes all its data into /root directory.
Sorry, I could not reproduce this problem. At the first time there was lot of megabytes in the /root that I have removed as it eat all free space, but now there is only build.log after repeating installation. But in both cases the result is the same:
[!] ERROR: sorry, it was not possible to establish a connection to the server.
So it is good idea of this project, but I don't see the way to get it working.
I have found the cause: https://check.torproject.org/api/ip is blocked. It available via vpn only. So it is the vicious circle problem: this project designed for bypassing blocking, but it itself uses blocked site. More over the problem is deeper. The error above issued by status command. But I have tried start command with no errors reported. But nothing is working too: neither dns resolution nor bare ip is not accessible. Also I repeated this test with clean iptables and got the same result. What else to do to get it working?
The problem is that tor is blocked. To get around this block we need bridge:
You are write a lot of data into /root directory. This is very bad style. Please write your data somewhere else by default and make this path configurable.
