David, I'm assuming he wants to hide the process due to provider killing the tor process. There are hosts whom are using incredibly lame methods for detecting the tor process — so simply renaming it can often bypass. At any rate, if my assumption is correct, well, I don't suggest engaging in that practice. It's better to find a host which allows one to operate tor.

Dear 0x23,

This is a totally rediculous question... but Oh yes you can certainly replace top, ps etc. with your own customized versions that exclude the tor process. You have root access, yes?

Why would you even want to do this? I don't understand. Don't you know that society praises tor relay operators for contributing?

Sincerely, david

Hey everybody,

is there any way to hide running a tor process on a server?? My vps hoster monitors which processes consume most of the resources, so just hiding would be best especially when it looks like a 'not tor' process..😉

I appreciate any helpful hints...

Cheers 0x23 --
