Torify Host Operating System

Documentation for this is incomplete. Contributions are happily considered!

Introduction

Torification of host operating system traffic depends on which host operating system is being used.

Mostly unsupported for now. Might be possible in future. Please contribute.

Windows

Windows: this probably won't be happening soon. Low likelihood of ever happening.

Qubes

Doable in theory to torify all of Qubes traffic but not implemented

• related discussion https://forums.whonix.org/t/update-templatevm-dom0-over-tor-torify-all-of-qubes-traffic/9016 ^[archive]

Based on Debian Hosts / Kicksecure Hosts / Whonix Host

It's not yet implemented. Kicksecure / Whonix Host development hasn't finished yet.

Related discussion: Should Whonix host be fully torified by default? ^[archive]
