Title: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: astor on June 14, 2013, 04:32 am
A much overlooked part of our community is the silcroad IRC server. It's a great place to chill and get to know people, and of course it's totally anon.

If you're bored and looking for people to chat with, stop by!

Don't know what IRC is? Not sure how to log on? No problem.

Download Pidgin from http://pidgin.im/


UPDATED INSTRUCTIONS 2013-09-20 by Atomos

Here's a tip for correct account setup in pidgin for security:

Basic Tab:
 Username:    You choose your nick obv. (forum name preferred)
 Server name: silcroadg3c3mtu6.onion
 Password:     LEAVE-BLANK
 Local Alias:    LEAVE-BLANK

Advanced Tab: (important)
 Port: 6667       
 Enc:  UTF-8
 Username: DO NOT LEAVE BLANK - Windows users - it will take your account name, i've warned about this before.  Anything BUT blank.
 All 3 tickboxes unchecked

Proxy Tab: (important)

 Standard OS with TorBrowser:
  Proxy Type: Tor/Privacy (SOCKS5)
  Host: 127.0.0.1   
  Port:  9150     (If you use an older tor version, or standalone: port 9050)   It will be 9150 or 9050 - try the other if you get "Connection Refused"
  User/Pass: BLANK

 Tails / Whonix / TorLiveCD:
  Proxy Type: Use GNOME Defaults

That's it - Tails/Whonix are setup to route EVERYTHING through tor, there is no need to change this. (You'll just break it if you do)


Right, so the people have spoken, they wanted their own room away from prying eyes and trolls - we call this #cheers. When you join for the first time you'll just be stuck with a pidgin window saying "Available"

Now Click "Buddies / Join a Chat / Room List (button)"

Join #public after posting here to say "hello, this is me that's joining" - Then make yourself known, or msg me over irc. This way we know you own the nick, verify you and put you on the auto invite list.

Post by: astor on June 14, 2013, 05:13 am
Trappy, is your browser bundle running? Pidgin needs to go through Tor. Don't shut down TBB.

Other than that, it should work as I wrote it above. Did you get the server right? In the advanced tab, is the Port set to 6667?

Does it give you any error messages?

Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: astor on June 14, 2013, 05:16 am
Trappy, if all else fails, try port 9050 instead of 9150.

livestr0ng, IRC is a protocol that allows many people to chat at the same time. It's like multi-person IM. We just hang out and chat.

It says, "connection refused."

If you get a connection refused error when you try to connect like trappy did here try alternating the port between 9150/9050 this was changed after the bundle was updated but this should fix it if you have issues

Can't get it to work. Running from whonix (if thats relevant). Any suggestions?
Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: astor on June 20, 2013, 11:16 pm
HEATfan, you're not late. The party's just getting started.

Ro-Jaws, if you're running Pidgin in Whonix, you don't have to configure the networking with Tor/Privoxy at 127.0.0.1:9050. Just run it normally, with no proxy stuff, the Gateway automatically proxies it. If it still doesn't connect, it will probably because you're trying to access an onion address.

You need to get on the Gateway and add this to the end of /etc/tor/torrc

mapaddress 10.10.10.10 silcroadg3c3mtu6.onion

Reload Tor: sudo /etc/init.d/tor reload

Then in Pidgin set the server to 10.10.10.10 instead the onion address.

In the few times I've been on the IRC channel, I've noticed an alarming number of individuals claiming to be people that they are not and/or are trolling. Would it be possible for confirmed and reputable users of SR (via forum PM confirmation) to have autovoice functionality? I know there are a few individuals already setup as such, but I think this would help mitigate a bit of the idiocy seen on the channel.
Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: mcguire39 on July 10, 2013, 02:18 pm
Not sure if this is already covered in the thread (and thank you to those who pointed this out), but Pidgin logs all your chat activity by default. And if you happen to be a Windows user, it stores this information (and all your chat nicks and settings) unencrypted in your UserData folder (irregardless of where you actually installed Pidgin).

So it's probably a good idea to disable chat and IM logging, and delete the old logs, and move your settings to an encrypted partition.

For example if J: is your encrypted drive:

1. With Pidgin closed, find the .purple data folder for Pidgin (in Windows this will usually be in a location like this:)
Code: [Select]
C:\Users\mcguire39\AppData\Roaming\.purple
2. Move that folder t your encrypted drive (J: for example)
Code: [Select]
J:\Users\mcguire39\AppData\Roaming\.purple
3. Make a symlink from your C: to J: so that Pidgin still works properly:
(From command prompt running as administrator):
Code: [Select]
cd /d C:\Users\mcguire39\AppData\Roaming
mklink /D .purple J:\Users\mcguire39\AppData\Roaming\.purple
symbolic link created for .purple <<===>> J:\Users\mcguire39\AppData\Roaming\.purple

Post by: saulgood on July 10, 2013, 05:27 pm
Are you using Vidalia/TorBrowser? I'll assume you are. Go to Vidalia -> Settings -> Advanced. Make sure "Configure ControlPort automatically" is UNchecked. The standard ControlPort is 9151, which makes your SocksPort 9150. Click "Edit current torrc". Do you see "SocksPort 9150" or another SocksPort in there?

Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: astor on July 14, 2013, 02:13 pm
You're using the browser bundle on Windows right? It should be port 9150 and Tor/Privacy is the right setting.

That's why I'm perplexed.

Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!

What are you running in the VM? Tails?

If so, then yes change the Tor/Privacy back to Gnome default. :)

Sorry if i misspelled something, im running the PIDGIN on WINDOWS, and dont have any browser bundle or anything there.
Title: Re: Hey, come chat with us!
Post by: astor on July 14, 2013, 03:00 pm
Ok I got it. Anything that ends in .onion is a hidden service and you need Tor to connect to it. You need to start the browser bundle and leave Pidgin with socks port 9150. Then you can connect.

And I mean, start the browser bundle on Windows, not the VM. Tor has to be available to Pidgin.

A more detailed description of your setup would be helpful.

Are you on Tails? If so, change Tor/Privacy back to Gnome default in the proxy settings.

If you're on Windows, did you set the right port? It's 9150 when using the Tor that's bundled in TBB, but 9050 for the standalone Tor.

Also, sanity check: is some copy of Tor actually running?

Post by: astor on July 19, 2013, 04:14 pm
So are you running the browser bundle?

Did you set the proxy settings to Tor/Privacy?

Did you set them to 127.0.0.1 port 9150?

Do you have a firewall running by any chance?

Advice very welcome.
make sure the username (ident) setting isn't set to your computer name :P
2. make sure logging is off
3. its always better to use an OS like tails if you are concerned for safety :)

Hi guys, so yeah lots of confusion and whatnot, suppose i should update more or something.

Setup your irc client, pidgin etc. That's in the first post.
If you get a buddy list window that says available and does nothing, try "Buddies/Join a Chat/ click "Room list" - you'll find #public there.

1. Join #public - You're new so you'll need to register your nickname.
2. Type /msg nickserv register YOURPASSWORD  (Unique and not something you use ever - but not OTT, it's only an IRC nickname - as you'll only have 60 seconds to type it in next time) (making this auto is easy, just ask in chan)

Congrats, you're registered and just need to send me a message over here (the forums) and you'll be added to the verified list.
Once done, you can join the verified members room where all the chat seems to be.

Now, time to trip balls and talk the funky talk.

We gotcha you're all set!

Just another friendly reminder: When you join #public you may not see many people, or there may not be anyone chatting at all. Thats because all of the fun stuff happens in #cheers. Follow the instructions in the topic when you join #public and if you have any problems, shoot one of the mods a pm (please only do this after you've tried everything) and we'll sort you out!

Thanks guys this is fun :)

Couple small but highly effective tutorials for you upcoming chat warriors and heroines that use pidgin:

AUTO-IDENTIFY:

Quote
To set a buddy pounce to auto identify (so you don't have to identify with nickserv each time you log in)

Type /query nickserv
Click conversation
Add buddy to your friends list (if nickserv isn't on your friends list this wont work)
Then add buddy pounce. In the pounce enter "identify yourpassword" (no slash, no quotations)
Checkmark Recurring
Checkmark "Pounce when buddy signs on"

That should do it for auto-identify


AUTOJOIN:

Quote
Click the tab/name of chatroom #cheers
Click Conversation
Click Add..
You'll see a popup dialogue in that window it'll have a small box which says "autorejoin when account connects" CHECKMARK THAT!!

AND YOU'RE DONE! See how easy? ;)

Ok I got in last week and all but totally screwed up trying to do the password, so its got me as guest538 ..how the heck do I get to be me? lol
.

Give them enough time. They'll start treating like a scrub for not doing getting it down. It's like walking into any other chat room. People who get empowered by it and try to mock those who were not born knowing everything about pidgin chat. Mind you, none, of some of the instructions needed are posted anywhere. The one little fucker called me a retard because my 2nd time logging in I got the guest thing. Fuck them. Atomos was decent. I'll give it that. But yea.

Post by: Atomos on September 20, 2013, 02:26 am
Hi folks, i'll see about getting the OP changed. In the meantime i'll leave this here:

Right, so the people have spoken, they wanted their own room away from prying eyes and trolls - we call this #cheers. When you join for the first time you'll just be stuck with a pidgin window saying "Available"
Now Click "Buddies / Join a Chat / Room List (button)"
Join #public after posting here to say "hello, this is me that's joining" - Then make yourself known, or msg me over irc. This way we know you own the nick, verify you and put you on the auto invite list.

Here's a tip for correct account setup in pidgin for security:

Basic Tab:
 Username:    You choose your nick obv.      Server name: silcroadg3c3mtu6.onion
 Password:     LEAVE-BLANK                         Local Alias:    LEAVE-BLANK

Advanced Tab: (important)
 Port: 6667        Enc:  UTF-8
 Username: DO NOT LEAVE BLANK - Windows users - it will take your account name, i've warned about this before.  Anything BUT blank.
 All 3 tickboxes unchecked

Proxy Tab: (important)

 Standard OS with TorBrowser:
  Proxy Type: Tor/Privacy (SOCKS5)
  Host: 127.0.0.1    Port:  9150     (If you use an older tor version, or standalone: port 9050)   It will be 9150 or 9050 - try the other if you get "Connection Refused"
  User/Pass: BLANK

 Tails / Whonix / TorLiveCD:
  Proxy Type: Use GNOME Defaults

That's it - Tails/Whonix are setup to route EVERYTHING through tor, there is no need to change this. (You'll just break it if you do)

Yes, but you need to PM Atomos for the solution.
http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?action=profile;u=25118

In the meantime, you can create another nickname.
When I logged in this morning I got a message saying that...
NickServ will change your username if you don't type your password in one minute.
I'd assume this is only temporary.

can someone remove me from the banlist? for the #cheers channel? ninjasex was being a prick.. i mentioned not backing up my wallet and being locked out of blockchain.info; he then called me a troll, told me to go kill myself, and banned me. why is such a prick given mod powers for that channel anyways?

if the people who are able to remove me from the banlist think his reason is justified, then that's okay too. to me, this is a clear case of abusing mod powers, which is fine by me, but i won't involve myself with it.

No need to worry, atomos had a lot of work to do, ive been in communication with him. he said hopefully it would be back up today if he can get everything sorted out. Might take him a little longer.

Hello you rabble!

Right so I owe you an update:

It seems the weight capacity of the server reached its limit - one of you is too fat and kindly ask you to go sit in a corner.
While i'm hammering it back into shape take some drugs, touch yourselves in that place daddy shows you.

a.s.a.p is what i'd like, but definitely tomorrow at the very latest. See you guys there soon.

Oh, btw - i'm not dead.

Oh, here's the shouty bit:

You have time while it is down to sort out your security, i'm sure some of you are being lying sods, so listen:

Install OTR now if you don't have it - there's a list of supported clients on their site. Once installed, goto plugins/off the record - Copy the fingerprint and put it here, in your profile.
WINDOWS - STOP IT. Virtualbox and linux is free, Whonix is free, Qubes is free - USE THEM.
Fuck, grab a copy of virtualbox and throw a copy of tails on there - pidgin and OTR is preinstalled (i think.) It's not much, but it's damn better than your own copy of windows that you SHOULD NOT be using for any of this business.

So that's your homework, next time you load up your client, it better fucking be on linux et al with OTR ready to go and your public otr fingerprint in your profile.

*HUGZ U*

We may have maxed out the number of allowed Tor connections, who knows. Does the Pidgin debug window say anything? 5 or 6 people have made it on already, so the info is correct and it does work.

Irc2p is a weird mix of servers, including Irc2p, Anonet and Nameless IRC, which have different rules. We first connected to Anonet and there were no services (NickServ, ChanServ), then we reconnected through this server and couldn't join #cheers, so that's why we're stuck with #ch33rs. But at least we have some control over random people coming in.

I've looked into the error I'm getting a bit further.  If I try to connect with putty configured for the same tor bundle proxy, it says "Proxy error: connection not allowed by ruleset" which sounds at first like the port is blocked in the proxy configuration, but I've read online this is not necessarily the case.  If the tor proxy is told by the tor server that the specified onion service does not have that port open, the tor proxy tries to be too smart for its own good and returns the above misleading error to the client.  So, I think there is some problem with that onion hostname and port, either a limitation in connections or else it isn't working from all nodes.

Nevermind, I'm apparently dyslexic tonight and typed in 3128 instead of 3218.
