Title: Unclear on how to set up a bridge in tor
Post by: goblin on March 22, 2012, 12:39 pm
I'm still not clear on how to set up a bridge. I tried to add the bridge lines in settings under network, but as soon as I click OK, a box appears saying "Vidalia was unable to apply your Network settings to Tor. Unacceptable option value: Servers must be able to freely connect to the rest of the Internet, so they must not set UseBridges."

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Also, if done correctly, how do you add several bridge IPs to the space? Is it by separating by commas?

And all I see is for example, 212.54.220.145:9001, but I seem to have seen that it should be something like: 212.54.220.145:9001 812593FCC5F4BCDD602F30B8F5852786B5F7E4EA or some such. Could you help?

Thanks in advance to all you tor veterans out there for your help!
