I'm trying to use Bitcoin Core with Tor. Tor is running on a separate machine. In the .conf file I have specified: proxy=192.168.0.106:9050, but the logs show 2019-10-31T20:35:05Z tor: Error connecting to Tor control socket 2019-10-31T20:35:05Z tor: Not connected to Tor control port 127.0.0.1:9051, trying to reconnect Why does it try to connect to localhost?

You need to set -torcontrol=<ip>:<port> to use the remote control port.
