Using Parallels VM as Lahana-tor proxy

Hello,

I'm working on a macbook pro with a wireless connection on a public wlan. For privacy reasons I want to use and have setup a VM in Parallels with Ubuntu and made that into a cabbage router (lahana-tor script: http://lahana.dreamcats.org/). What I want to do is connect from my macbook to the VM with VPN. The VM uses openVPN and TOR to reroute the connection and the VM has to connect to the public wlan. The aim is to encrypt and anonimyze all trafic from my mac via the Lahana-TOR VM to the public wlan and Internet.

I cannot get my macbook to connect to the VM with a VPN-connection. I have setup two nic's in the VM. The first is a host-only NIC on the 10.37... networkrange (virtio adapter) and meant for the local VPN connection from my macbook to the VM. The second NIC is a shared network connection with my macbook and is meant to connect from the VM to the public network after traffic is VPN encrypted and torified in the VM.

I can't get this to work unfortunately. Does someone have hints, tips or a comparable working setup that can point me in the right direction to solving this?

 

Hi, have you checked that

1) selinux is disabled in Ubuntu ( http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/turn-off-selinux.html )

2) firewall is either disabled or allows connects in Ubuntu (likely with "sudo ufw disable"

?
