Tor and Tortilla

I was finally able to get around and test Tortilla. Tortilla allows you to send all traffic through TOR when using a virtual machine.No need for additional software or VPN's

Download the Tortilla software HERE

You will need TOR Expert Bundle. Download that HERE

When installing the TOR expert bundle i had to install it as an administrator. Right click the EXE and choose Run As Administrator.

Once you have TOR and Tortilla installed, run TOR and once it loads up, run Tortilla. The first time Tortilla runs it will take a couple minutes to install the adapter.

Once both pieces of software are running you will need to add or adjust your VMNET on your virtual machines. Those of you who have VMWare Player will need to somehow extract the vmnetcfg.exe and library file from VMWare workstation. Below are some helpful links:

Link 2

Once you have the ability to edit the network configuration you can modify and exisitng VMNET or create a new VMNET and bridge the Tortilla adapter to it. Please note, I was only able to modify the VMNET0 since I did not have the option to select the Tortilla adapter when i created a new VMNET to bridge to. I am not sure why.



Once all of this is setup (Installing Tor expert bundle, Tortilla and modifying a VMNET to bridge to the Tortilla adapter) you should be able to select Custom in your VM network settings and select the VMNET that is bridged to the Tortilla Adapter. In my case this is VMNET0:



At this point in time power on your VM and all traffic will be sent to Tor using the Tortilla adapter.
