Hi Tony, Your tor, when started that way, does use /etc/tor/torrc as its torrc file. It *also* uses /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc as its backup "default defaults" torrc file. https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/release-0.2.3:/ReleaseNotes#l238 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/4552 In short, everything is fine. --Roger _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
