Did you already follow the steps mentioned in the FAQ? http://www.privoxy.org/faq/misc.html#TOR Using a more recent Privoxy version wouldn't hurt either. While I think this is a Tor-related problem, newer Privoxy versions have more descriptive error messages (especially if you use forward-socks5 instead of forward-socks4a), which should make debugging this easier: http://www.fabiankeil.de/blog-surrogat/2008/08/17/privoxy-3.0.10.html Fabian signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Re: "Waiting for circuit"-problem (newbie)
Thanks again! Vidalia's Network Map: no, there are no lines on the map; but I've 998 relays listed as "online" at the left side with names and so on. The window belob says (translated): and beside of this . After some seconds the "new" gets "missed". It seems to check new ways but actually can't GO one.

Re: "Waiting for circuit"-problem (newbie)
Thanks for your reply! Yes, I installed the vidalia bundle (Vidalia: 0.1.9; Tor: 0.2.0.31). Yes, pppoe is always started before and runs fine (I haven't changed anything here; should I?) No, there was no warning as far as I remember from OSX. The firewall is running, and -to see if there's a difference- I added the Vidalia program in the "allow" list to let it work freely; but there was no difference. There's an option at vidalia for the firewall; I tested it with the ports set automatically ("80,443"), but there's no success. Anything else I could/should add? I'm a bit worried I forgot something "basic" to do..

"Waiting for circuit"-problem (newbie)
Hello! I'd really like to use Tor but I have the following problem that I couldn't solve although I searched the FAQ and Wiki for days by now. I'm not so familiar to this advanced use of my computer (for ME it's advanced)- so I hope, someone can help me out?! The log: Oktober 12 11:19:43.041 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 96/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.271 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 192/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.751 [Hinweis] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We have only 287/1201 usable descriptors. Oktober 12 11:19:43.850 [Hinweis] We now have enough directory information to build circuits. Oktober 12 11:21:39.961 [Hinweis] Tried for 120 seconds to get a connection to [scrubbed]:9001.

(waiting for circuit) Oktober 12 11:22:39.986 [Hinweis] Tried for 120 seconds to get a connection to [scrubbed]:9001. Giving up. (waiting for circuit) I'm running the 0.2.0.31 Tor pack (german) on MAC OS X 10.5.5 with an PPPoE internet connection (account name + PW). The whole package is installed, but as soon as I want to start Tor, I've the listed problems. Did I forget to make more adjustements than installing it? The Tor site doesn't say more to this. Do I have to install a proxy internet connection? Hoping for some help to a poor newbie who wants to learn how to surf more securely and also wants to enlargen the network
