This is a crash course for those who wishes to climb over the GFW of China.<\/p>\n
Of course you wouldn’t be able to read this blog since it’s been blocked…… but anyway, here is a quick cheat sheet in case you have subscribed to my blog using google reader :p<\/p>\n
First you will need Firefox browser<\/a><\/strong> with addon ‘Autoproxy<\/strong>‘. This add-on sometimes is baned from being downloaded in China, so you might want to try the chinese version<\/a> of add-on directory.<\/p>\n After installation of add-on, you will be prompted to select the default connection method, set it to ‘Tor<\/strong>‘. You will also notice that you have subscribe to a list of website on autoproxy settings; these are the websites blocked by GFW. Now if you want to visit my site freely, either set Autoproxy to Global Mode or add a new rule for cenci.tk<\/a>. You can also update your subscription manually from time to time when you find it difficult to get pass a certain website.<\/p>\n Next close firefox and install download from this website: https:\/\/www.torproject.org\/dist\/vidalia-bundles\/vidalia-bundle-0.2.1.28-0.2.10.exe<\/a><\/p>\n Note that if you are typing the address in browser yourself make sure you use ‘https<\/strong>‘ such that your visit is encrypted. The non-encrypted http connection is blocked by GFW.<\/p>\n Exclude ‘Torbutton’ from the list of components. (you can also install it, but I have not tried using it, it’s another firefox add-on of similar function). I personally find autoproxy more ‘intellegent’.<\/p>\n Next we need to configure Tor with nice graphic interface provided by Vidalia. Open this webpage https:\/\/bridges.torproject.org\/<\/a> or send an email to bridges@torproject.org<\/a> using a trusted email provider<\/strong> (such as Gmail). Refrain from using QQmail and other mail service providers from mainland China especially because your mails can be monitored.<\/p>\n You will receive a list of bridges which look like below:<\/p>\n \nbridge 82.103.128.2:9090 If the progress bar on Vidalia freezes for a long time without completion, we need more detailed configuration of the software.<\/p>\n Open up Vidalia<\/strong> and go into Settings<\/strong>, go to Network option and select ‘My ISP blocks connection to Tor network<\/strong>‘. Add the bridges you obtained to the list shown below, do not include the text ‘bridge’; your added bridge would look like:<\/p>\n \n82.103.128.2:9090\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Put all three down in the list, the order is not important. Now restart Vidalia but selecting ‘Exit<\/strong>‘ then start the program again.<\/p>\n You will see that Tor has successfully connected to a Tor network after a few seconds. You are good to go!<\/p>\n Please also remember to deselect option’My ISP blocks connection to Tor network<\/strong>‘ if you have problem connecting to Tor network a second time.<\/p>\n Note that Autoproxy is just a software which selects which site you visit that Tor is required. If you want full anonymity of browsing, set Autoproxy to Global Mode<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Enjoy browsing the internet outside the wall!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is a crash course for those who wishes to climb over the GFW of China.
