I would like to use tor with deluge. My question pertains to the *Tracker* part in the options. I have tor and privoxy installed and have been wondering how to set this up. Which *Type* do I pick.. Socksv4 or Sockv5. For host I have put 127.0.0.1 and for port I chose 9050. Also is there a way to test that it is working?

Re: Using deluge with TOR
I have not used deluge but tried Tor and privoxy. To check if Tor is working you can visit their webpage https://check.torproject.org/ with it running.
I did not need to do much setting up and I don't know about the settings so have just copied below my working config files for privoxy and tor. In my case it is running on a virtual machine with Ubuntu 8.04
etc/privoxy/config is -
# Generally, this file goes in /etc/privoxy/config
#
# Tor listens as a SOCKS4a proxy here:
forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .
confdir /etc/privoxy
logdir /var/log/privoxy
actionsfile standard # Internal purpose, recommended
actionsfile default # Main actions file
actionsfile user # User customizations
filterfile default.filter
# Don't log interesting things, only startup messages, warnings and errors
#logfile logfile
#jarfile jarfile
#debug 0 # show each GET/POST/CONNECT request
debug 4096 # Startup banner and warnings
debug 8192 # Errors - *we highly recommended enabling this*
user-manual /usr/share/doc/privoxy/user-manual
listen-address 127.0.0.1:8118
toggle 1
enable-remote-toggle 0
enable-edit-actions 0
enable-remote-http-toggle 0
buffer-limit 4096
etc/tor/tor-tsocks.conf contains only this -
# This is the configuration for libtsocks (transparent socks) for use
# with tor, which is providing a socks server on port 9050 by default.
#
# See tsocks.conf(5) and torify(1) manpages.
server = 127.0.0.1
server_port = 9050
# We specify local as 127.0.0.0 - 127.191.255.255 because the
# Tor MAPADDRESS virtual IP range is the rest of net 127.
local = 127.0.0.0/255.128.0.0
local = 127.128.0.0/255.192.0.0
I installed Tork used the First Run Wizard to let it handle the settings. When I start Tork first then use it to open firefox the Tor website says Tor is running. Visiting GRC.com and using ShieldsUp to see what IP address my machine appears to have confirmed that I seemed to be connecting from a different country.
