        <p>
        Now that you have a website, why not offer it on a private alternative such as the onion network?
        </p>
        <aside>
            <a href="https://landchad.net" >LandChad.net</a> does not condone
            any illegal activities or websites on the dark web nor the usage of
            this tutorial to launch such sites.
        </aside>

        <h2>Setting up Tor</h2>

        <p>First, install tor. On Debian it's as simple as:</p>

        <pre><code> apt install tor</code></pre>

        <p>Then edit the file <code>/etc/tor/torrc</code>, uncommenting the following lines:</p>
        <pre><code>        HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/
        HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80</code></pre>
        <aside>
            <h4>Optional: Running multiple onion services</h4>
            <p>If you want to forward multiple virtual ports for a single onion
            service, just add more HiddenServicePort lines (replace the 80 with any unoccupied port).
            </p>
            <p>If you want to run multiple onion services from the same Tor client, just add another
            HiddenServiceDir line.</p>
        </aside>

        <p>Now restart tor</p>
        <pre><code> systemctl enable --now tor </code></pre>

        <p>If the next command outputs <q>active</q> in green you're golden!</p>
        <pre><code> systemctl status tor</code></pre>

        <p>Now you're server is on the dark web. The following command will give you your onion address:</p>
        <pre><code> cat /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/hostname</code></pre>

        <h2>Adding the Nginx Config</h2>
        <p>
        From here, the steps are almost identical to setting up a normal website configuration file.
        Follow the steps as if you were making a new website on the webserver
        <a href="https://landchad.net/nginx.html" >tutorial</a> up until the server block of code. Instead, paste this:
        </p>

        <pre><code>        server {
            listen 127.0.0.1:80 ;
            root /var/www/<strong>landchad</strong> ;
            index index.html ;
            server_name <strong>your-onion-address</strong>.onion ;
        }</code></pre>

        <aside>
            <h4>Clarification</h4>
            <p>Nginx will listen on port 80 for your <em>server's</em> localhost.</p>
            <p>The <code>root</code> line is the path to whichever website of yours you'd like to mirror.</p>
        </aside>
        <p>
        From here we are almost done, all we have to do is enable the site and reload nginx which is also covered in the webserver tutorial.
