eotk genkey fails with newer Tor version

qbi opened this issue 6 years ago · comments

I'm using the recent master of eotk (d25456a) and Tor version 0.3.5.7. When running eotk genkey the script fails, because it seems Tor creates a v3 onion key and lib.d/generate-onion-key.sh tries to mv the file private.key which doesn't exist here. When I do a export ONION_VERSION=3; ./eotk genkey the script works without problems. Also when using Tor 0.3.4.7 /and/ without ONION_VERSION it also works.

Also when trying export ONION_VERSION=3; ./eotk config foo.tconf results in

map: 7nn3d7pc62aisbl6yw2dxtiwhbfcige7xnytuydnu6o43ervefbhihad.v3pub: bad onion address

I guess starting it might be a good idea to test for Tor version. The recent v0.3.5.7 started to default to v3 onions. So if the underlying Tor version is equal or larger than this version it might be better to stick to v3 onions. What do you think?

I pushed a fix a few hours ago.

Also: v3 onions will probably not receive support until OnionBalance (or similar) supports v3, because I don't want to be documenting magic temporary exceptions in the config file.

Sorry, should've pulled the latest change first. It works now. Thanks.
