I am trying to run the Monero wallet in Tails using the [Guide to creating a Monero GUI wallet in Tails][1]. I run the following iptables command from within the extracted Monero wallet: sudo iptables -I OUTPUT 2 -p tcp -d 127.0.0.1 -m tcp --dport 18081 -j ACCEPT [sudo] password for amnesia: But the command does't return anything. So I'm not sure if the port has been opened through Tails' firewall. I then run command. DNS_PUBLIC=tcp torsocks ./monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --no-igd --rpc-bind-ip 127.0.0.1 --data-dir /media/amnesia/monero The node begins to download. 2020-04-03 17:14:50.538 I Monero 'Carbon Chamaeleon' (v0.15.0.1-release) 2020-04-03 17:14:50.538 I Initializing cryptonote protocol... 2020-04-03 17:14:50.538 I Cryptonote protocol initialized OK 2020-04-03 17:14:50.538 I Initializing core... 2020-04-03 17:14:50.538 I Loading blockchain from folder /media/amnesia/monero/lmdb ... 2020-04-03 17:14:50.579 I Loading checkpoints I get a few errors. 2020-04-03 19:19:26.124 I Synced 46512/2068842 (2%, 2022330 left) 1585941567 ERROR torsocks[16670]: General SOCKS server failure (in socks5_recv_connect_reply() at socks5.c:527) 2020-04-03 19:19:28.302 I Synced 46612/2068842 (2%, 2022230 left) But the node continues to download regardless.

[![Port Forwarding][2]][2] And I've also tried using a virtual server on the router: [![Virtual Server][3]][3] I'm not sure where the problem lies. Using the latest Tails OS and Monero Wallet. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
