Modifications for no authentication required to run tornet

[Codewith-Vedant]

So, this isn't an issue but more of a modification.

Whenever I used tornet, it asked for password for authentication. It won't work with sudo command either

So, I came up with this so we don't have to authenticate it each and every time it reloads the tor service:-

Step 1:
Run command sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/tor-nopasswd

Step 2:
Copy paste the line and write your username
YOUR_USERNAME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl start tor.service, /usr/bin/systemctl stop tor.service, /usr/bin/systemctl restart tor.service, /usr/bin/systemctl reload tor.service, /usr/bin/systemctl start tor@default.service, /usr/bin/systemctl stop tor@default.service, /usr/bin/systemctl restart tor@default.service, /usr/bin/systemctl reload tor@default.service

Step 3:
Save the file

Step 4:
Check with command "pip show tornet"

Step 5:
Copy the location path from output of Step 4, and go to that dir using cd LOCATION_PATH

Step 6:
Once in that directory, do "cd tornet"

Step 7:
Open tornet.py file using nano
nano tornet.py

Step 8:
Replace following lines

1. os.system("service tor start") -----------> os.system("sudo -n /usr/bin/systemctl start tor.service")
2. os.system("service tor reload") -----------> os.system("sudo -n /usr/bin/systemctl reload tor.service")

Step 9:
Save and exit

Now, when we run the tornet commands we are not asked for authentication

Thank you so much, and sorry for the delay—I had an accident. I’ve updated it now, please have a look.
