>Also, try using `su` with no arguments and see if that asks for a password also.
The problem was resolved by using the "su" command on its own (as opposed to "su user", which prompted me for a password), which brought me straight into "bash-5.0#", where I used the "cat > 00-macrandomizer.conf" command. Typing "sudo cat > test.txt" into the user (non-su) prompt returned "bash: test.txt: Permission denied". >Also, don't type your dom0 passwords or disk password into VMs. You may want to change them just to be safe. My machine has never been connected to the internet when I typed in the passwords (like, in the lifetime of the machine), so I figured they'll be safe unless a verified iso has been compromised, but I'll do things the Qubes way and change them anyways. Not a minimal template because it was cloned from the default fedora-30 and left unmolested by my fat fingers. I might play around with minimals in the future, so the info provided might come in handy. >Re: TOR firewall I have the computational resources to spare, so I'll take the paranoid route and firewall my Whonix-15-gw while keeping an eye on SOCKSPorts.
