Any links on this explaining it in depth and showing how to sett it up?

I looked in to Qubes site but dident find it.



You should be fine without doing any packet capture. As long as you 
install and use the whonix VM and leave most everything as default, you 
shouldn't have to worry much about leaks. It's quite a reliable setup, 
as long as you don't do anything unusual when installing/configuring.


awokd is right in that your upstream will just see Tor traffic. Much 
like if you use a VPN, they will see VPN traffic. Tor traffic is 
designed to look (superficially) like generic HTTPS traffic. However, if 
someone knows what they're looking for, it's not hard to recognize Tor 
traffic based on its characteristics.


If this is a problem for you, you can try using pluggable transports[1] 
and/or bridge nodes. The 'meek' transport, for example, makes Tor 
traffic look like regular traffic going to Google App Engine.


Someone might be able to help you better on one of the Tor mailing 
lists: https://lists.torproject.org/

Please cite the relevant portion(s) of the post to which you are
replying. Packet capturing is not Qubes specific, so a standard Internet
search should provide plenty of details on the technique. It's the best
way to see and learn exactly what traffic is coming from your machine;
more than anyone on a mailing list can tell you. It's also entirely
optional- you can stick with my first answer of "Tor traffic" if you
don't care about the details!

Thanks for youre reply.

What dose this mean (not asking how its don at this point):

"Best way to make sure is to set up your own
packet capture off the wire."

And what difference would it make?

On mailing lists like this one, please include a portion of the text to 
which you are replying. Anyways, it means to set up a monitor or packet 
capture of your own traffic. That way you can learn exactly what it is 
doing. Doing it at the network level is best, but you could also do it 
in sys-net.

Hi, if some one uses Tor with whonix gateway on a publicnetwork and all the 
trafic on that Network was supervised. What would that users activity look like?


Any traffic from VMs connected to Whonix gateway/sys-whonix would only 
appear as Tor traffic. Best way to make sure is to set up your own 
packet capture off the wire.



I also get a mesage saying that "kernel module failed loading" (I might have 
misspelled that). What is that?


Cosmetic error. Ignore.

I have two different VPN's I use for different purposes.  I have a cisco 
provided VPN for a client which I connect to via openconnect from within a 
dedicated appVM, and I run an OpenVPN server on my home network and connect to 
it through the OpenVPN client when not at home from a clone of sys-net for the 
purpose.  I switch which sys-net I run based on if I need to connect to home or 
not, or I simply don't run the OpenVPN client if I'm using the sys-net with the 
OpenVPN client but don't need to connect.  There are quite a few different ways 
to skin this cat.

Hi Wolf Man

Welcome to Qubes.

It would be easier to help if you gave some idea of what the problem is:
"still no joy" doesn't mean anything.

Also, "the Qubes instructions" cover a number of different approaches.
Which one did you try?
How did the instructions provided by your provider differ from the Qubes?

Can you say what provider is involved, and what flavour of vpn you are
trying to put in place.
Look in the log files for the service, and post relevant extracts - I

The more relevant information you provide, the easier it will be to

Specifics are definitely needed for questions like this.

The thing that usually confuses people about the current (old) Qubes doc 
is there is no button for "ProxyVM" on the R4.0 Create VM dialog. The 
way to do this in R4.0 is to click on "Provides network" instead.


The newer (proposed) doc + qubes-tunnel as suggested by awokd are much 
easier to install and run more smoothly, BTW.

See updated instructions here:
https://github.com/tasket/qubes-doc/blob/tunnel/configuration/vpn.md, but
note that qubes-tunnel (available from the same author at
https://github.com/tasket/qubes-tunnel) has not yet been officially
blessed by the Qubes team.

There are others on this mailing list besides the Qubes core team that can
sometimes help, so ask away!
