I would like to set a specific exit node for a separate qube (I need that qube to have an ip of specific country) so I guess I need to edit its torrc file, located in its traditional directory etc/tor/torrc. But before want to ensure that it causes no threats to security and anonimity. And will this set-up actually work?
And what should it mean? I know why excluding of nodes is discouraged. I meant more the technical aspect of the matter. Doesn’t setting of a specific exit node to a separate qube via editing its torrc file cause any threats to security and anonimity of Qubes OS? I just need that qube to have an ip of specific country. If setting of specific exit node to a separate qube in its own torrc file is not causing any security and anonimity problems in Qubes OS work then it’s ok.
I assume that you want to use Whonix and not just tor inside non-Whonix qube.
You can’t set specific exit node only for some qubes connected to sys-whonix.
You can only set exit node that will be applied for all qubes connected to sys-whonix.
You may want to create a separate sys-whonix for your specific exit node.
If you know why it’s discouraged then you should know how it’s a threat to anonymity when using sys-whonix with only specific exit nodes.
