Hello testers,
I have here a first test release of new "obfs-flash" bundles. What's different about these is that when you use flash proxy in these bundles, the payloads of the WebSocket messages will be obfuscated with obfs3 (you will see it called "obfs3_flashproxy" in torrc). It's part of a big project we've had to combine different transports together, one you can read about in ticket #7167.
https://people.torproject.org/~dcf/pt-bundle/2.4.17-beta-2-obfs-flash1/
There is a known problem with this set of bundles on Windows. On Windows, some transport processes (obfsproxy.exe and flashproxy-client.exe) will continue running after you exit Tor and Vidalia. You have to open the Task Manager and kill those processes before running the bundle again. Read more about it here and in following comments: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10006#comment:5 This problem was unexpected and will take some time to fix, but we are working on it. If you are testing on Windows, remember to kill any remaining obfsproxy.exe and flashproxy-client.exe processes after exiting the bundle. GNU/Linux and Mac OS X should work fine.
Because of the problem in the previous paragraph, this build isn't going to be released except to testers. But since GNU/Linux and Mac OS X should work, we are interested in getting some early feedback.
The bundles are configured to start obfs2, obfs3, and obfs3_flashproxy transports. obfs2 and obfs3 are the same as in previous releases and don't need any special testing. If you want to test obfs3_flashproxy specifically, you should comment out all the Bridge obfs2 Bridge obfs3 lines, and leave the one line Bridge obfs3_flashproxy
