Howto: Install Nextcloud Tor Hidden Service (.onion) (Shortcut Tip)

Jul 24, 2021

DISCLAIMER: Hardening highly recommended. This will show you how to setup Nextcloud as a Tor Hidden Service but this video does not cover hardening aspects. It's a starter video to get you a functional Nextcloud Server + Onion Address using a shortcut I came up with.

Want Something Ready To Use? "privacybox" image with automated .onion address/keys generation Nextcloud server + Encrypted Pastebin AES256bit + torified wifi router options and much more (including menushell for control), see Supporter image at Extras.



SELF HOSTING EMPOWERMENT SERIES:

[while this shows a Pine64 A64 LTS, you can follow along with the same OS running on a Raspberry Pi/other single board computer]

Nextcloud as a Tor Hidden Service Video is part of the 'self hosting' series. Will be placing more focus on self hosting, single board computers.

Call me 'old school' if you like, but I'm not so sure the industry standard cloud innovation is entirely why you think it is.

Today, innovation is always directed towards whichever way the money flows in.

The Cloud is perfected format for data collection.

whereas:

Self hosting offers additional options, network, and server hardware control, allowing the protecting your data.

Self hosting is the Ultimate User Empowerment.


Today's Video In The Series:

One of the things I am asked more than any other is "How do you make a Nextcloud Tor Hidden Service?"

Today we will do just that.

This video goes through the process, from flashing a Linux OS to a quick shortcut for installing Nextcloud, up to successfully creating the .onion hidden service address/public key.

Thank You to everyone who takes the time to Share and/or Support my videos. All writing/videos are demonetized.

Coming up: I will be showing how to use something I am making: crypto_homes: a command you can install on Linux devices to allow you to create and manage multiple different encrypted $HOME sdcards for multiple virtual userspaces (ex: work, play, pentesting, research/doc, etc). It also creates a hardware key to go along with it (out of any ordinary USB stick).


SHORTCUT INSTALL NEXTCLOUD AS TOR HIDDEN SERVICE:
