I am using Alpine linux distro and trying to run the tor browser bundle
http://alpinelinux.org/
https://www.torproject.org/
Thing is, I have to execute start-tor-browser script, so in terminal I put command:
/home/alex/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/start-tor-browser
Nothing happens, the browser wont start cause Alpine Linux is using Trusted path execution, grsec.
Now if I put command, and enter my password:
sudo /home/alex/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/start-tor-browser
The browser starts without problem but the script is not suppose to be run as root or with root privileges, I think that running it with sudo is not secure at all and is not recommended.
The same goes for this other browser, I have to execute flashpeak-slimjet script
http://www.slimjet.com/en/dlpage.php
Is there anyway I can run the scripts without using sudo?
Or do I have to disable trusted path execution option in the kernel? If yes, how can I do that?
Or is imposible to run this 2 browsers in Alpine Linux distro?
slimjet running in Alpine Linux
Re: slimjet running in Alpine Linux
You only have to sudo it once to setup the sandbox correctly. After that, there is no need to sudo later on.
