Install Whonix in Qubes
|
||
=======================
|
||
|
||
Installing Whonix in Qubes is simple and only requires a few simple steps.
|
||
|
||
### First Time Users
|
||
|
||
Using privacy and anonymization tools like Whonix is not a magical solution that instantly makes you anonymous online. Please consider:
|
||
|
||
* Do you know what metadata or a man-in-the-middle attack is?
|
||
* Do you think nobody can eavesdrop on your communications because you are using Tor?
|
||
* Do you know how Whonix works?
|
||
|
||
If you answered no, have a look at the [about](https://www.whonix.org/wiki/About), [warning](https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Warning) and [do not](https://www.whonix.org/wiki/DoNot) pages (on the Whonix website) to make sure Whonix is the right tool for you and you understand it's limitations.

|
||
### Install Templates
|
||
|
||
Launch the `dom0` terminal `Konsole` from your Qubes App Launcher. Then enter the following command to install the Whonix-Gateway and Workstation TemplateVMs.
|
||
|
||
~~~
|
||
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community qubes-template-whonix-gw qubes-template-whonix-ws
|
||
~~~
|
||
|
||
Download will take a while and there will be no progress indicator.
|
||
|
||
After doing this, you should see two new TemplateVMs in the VM Manager called `whonix-gw` and `whonix-ws`
|
||
|
||
### Enabling AppArmor
|
||
|
||
This is an optional security enhancement (for testers-only). If you’re technical & interested, see [Enabling AppArmor](/doc/privacy/customizing-whonix/).
|
||
|
||
### Configuring Whonix VMs
|
||
|
||
Create a **Whonix-Gateway** ProxyVM by clicking on `Create a New VM` and select `whonix-gw` as the template and select ProxyVM as the type.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Create a **Whonix-Workstation** AppVM by clicking on `Create a New VM` and select `whonix-ws` as the template and select AppVM (should be default) as the type.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Configure the **Whonix-Gateway TemplateVM** to use the `sys-whonix` ProxyVM that you just created.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Great. You should be all done installing Whonix into Qubes. Use these two TemplateVMs and the ProxyVM you just added, like you would for any other VMs.
|
||
|
||
### Running Applications
|
||
|
||
To start an application in the **Whonix-Workstation AppVM** that you created, launch it like any other- open the `Qubes App Launcher` and then select an app such as `Privacy Browser` which will then launch the Tor Browser
|
||
|
||
