No. The SocksListenAddress is for the address of the SOCKS server, not the address of the SOCKS client. Example: you have 10.0.0.1 through 10.0.0.4 networked together. 10.0.0.1 is running a Tor client. Set SocksListenAddress to 10.0.0.1:9050 and then tell each of the other machines to use that same address as their SOCKS proxy. > And can I setup my Tor-Client that every pc in the lan no matter > what IP it has, can use it? The default is that any machine that can access the address given for the SOCKS server can route through the Tor client. The reason 127.0.0.1 is special is because it refers specifically to the local host from any IPv4-networked machine, so by definition, a host cannot be accessed from anywhere outside itself as 127.0.0.1 (or any of the other predefined "loopback" addresses). > greets ---> Drake Wilson
