sudo apt-get install tor

created directory called: hidden_service 
in /var/lib/tor

while in /var/lib/tor
chown -R debian-tor:debian-tor hidden_service


vim /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc

add two lines:

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/
HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:8080


tor daemon log file: /var/log/tor/log

ps aux | grep tor


start up tor if not already running:

/usr/sbin/tor --defaults-torrc /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc --hush

or restart tor daemon

kill -USR1 `cat /var/run/tor/tor.pid`

then in the hidden_service directory, two new files will be created:

private_key
hostname
