- Issue: Seeing Connections
Im not sure, but I've only copied the default armrc to /var/lib/tor/.arm/ and set the proper permissions.
As I see, there is no /usr/share/doc/arm/armrc.sample. I've fetched it from here: https://www.atagar.com/arm/. If your are using arm with another user, armrc should be in your home directory.
Tor runs on Debian as user 'debian-tor' with no shell, so i cant just do 'sudo -u <tor user> arm' even if sudo was installed on the server. But i added my user to the debian-tor group. On a side note i never could get the CookieAuthentication working either. Seems to be permission issues with the default installation. Does somebody else have this issues on Debian?
You don't need a shell for the debian-tor user. CookieAuthentication should work, if you set CookieAuthentication 1 in /etc/tor/torrc and are using an armrc file.
- Issue: It always says this message in the arm logs even if the
service is just started a moment ago. If i reload the config it says the same thing shortly after.
Yes, that looks like some Debian issue. I've seen the same message with "RunAsDaemon", which is the default value. But that doesn't hurt. I just ignore this message.
- Issue: I dont understand this message. Nickname is edited by me so it
does not match its default value. Also why is it unneeded?
Try to have a look into /etc/default/tor and /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc, there should be some relevant settings.
Hopefully it helps.
