Hi, Finally, I figured out how to rout QS > Stunnel > Tor > NNTPS; damn, that took weeks...:-) How To Retrieve On-Topic NG Messages: ------------- QS NNTP PROXY SETTINGS: 127.0.0.1: No Port Number Socks: 5 ------------- QS NTTPS FOR A.A.M, A.P.A-S, A.P, ETC: info.bananasplit.info ------------- STUNNEL CONF. FILE: debug = 7 output = log.txt client = yes options = all RNDbytes = 2048 RNDfile = bananarand.bin RNDoverwrite = yes [BANANA_NNTPS_NEWSFEED] accept = 127.0.0.1:119 connect = news.bananasplit.info:563 ------------- SocksCap: 127.0.0.1:9050 Socks: 5 ------------- Tor: current release .1.0.5-rc Default Client settings ------------- This setup works for posting and dloading message though any NTTPS portal, but I chose ZAX's as he helped me in setting up this rout and is a very nice person...Not to mention his NNTS portal is free and secure. _____________________________ Next, I am going to figure out how to post to SMTP via. QS > Stunnel > Tor > SMTP. I know SSL SMTP isn't necessary and it's overkill but why not use it if it's aviable? To post SMTP through QS>Stunnel>Tor I will use the above settings and add these Stunnel.conf settings: #[PANTA_TLS_SMTP_MAIL] #rotocol = smtp #accept = 2525 #connect = panta-rhei.dyndns.org:465 #delay = no #[BANANA_TLS_SMTP_MAIL] #protocol = smtp #accept = 2526 #connect = mail.bananasplit.info:2525 #delay = no I will also add the approate Host and first Remailer to my QS headers. _____________________________________ Banana aslo offers a NNTP newsfeed via. Tor Hidden Services. ZAX's NNTP hidden services are down right now but he's getting them up soon. As far as I understand you can post & dl though Banana'a hidden NNTP protal. (replace the hidden services url with one of the new ones): tyrndfbdb2x6g3vg.onion ------------- Also, Panta offers Tor Hidden Services NNTP: rjgcfnw4sd2jaqfu.onion Panta offers Tor Hidden Services SMTP: Host: rjgcfnw4sd2jaqfu.onion From: foo@bar.com ***Warning: If you use these Tor Hidden Services your real Host name (and even IP can be leaked). I just asked Richard if QS is capabile of spoofing the EHLO answer, thus defeating the Host leak. I know JBN2 Panta can spoof the EHLO answer, I hope QS can also. ______________________ Thanks and sorry for all the questions _____________________________________________________________ The best email provider on today's market, sign-up now for as low as $20.00 AUD per year! http://www.aussiemail.com.au New 56k Dial-up Internet Technology.
