[[Untested]]! [[Stream Isolation]] for Monero has not yet been considered. Refer to the [[Stream Isolation]] page and search for:
* {{CodeSelect|inline=true|code=torsocks}}, and
* {{CodeSelect|inline=true|code=IsolatePID 1}}.
To enforce stream isolation, you could experiment with the following commands.
Note: Replace monerod
, monero-wallet-gui
, monero-wallet-cli
with the actual path to monerod
, for example /home/user/monero-gui/monerod
or ./monerod
.
{{CodeSelect|code=
DNS_PUBLIC=tcp TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1 torsocks monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --no-igd --hide-my-port
}}
{{CodeSelect|code=
