Make sure you have Tor running locally so you can connect to the Tor network. One simple way on the Mac is to just start the Tor browser and use its Tor daemon.
Once it is working, you can connect using your cli wallet: ``` ./monero-wallet-cli --proxy 127.0.0.1:9150 --daemon-host HIDDEN_SERVICE.onion --trusted-daemon --daemon-login USERNAME:PASSWORD --wallet-file ~/PATH/TO/YOUR/WALLET ``` Replace values above as needed.
Then test a simple RPC command, eg: ``` curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 -u USERNAME:PASSWORD --digest -X POST http://HIDDEN_SERVICE.onion:18081/json_rpc -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"0","method":"get_info"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' ``` Replace `USERNAME`, `PASSWORD`, and `HIDDEN_SERVICE` with values from above.Change`9150` to another port if needed by your local Tor daemon.
This will allow the GUI to communicate with the Tor network.Once the GUI is open and a wallet loaded, you must configure it to connect to your Tor hidden service by adding your onion address to: "Settings > Node > Remote node > Address".
When you execute the command, you should get some info about the remote daemon if everything is working correctly.If not, add a ` -v ` to the beginning and try to debug why it's not connecting, check firewalls, password, etc.
