True, and thanks for the examples. I think the daemons are probably a better move for those who aren't firewall veterans, as everyone else would probably be copy-and-pasting firewall configs like the ones you gave and praying that they worked. The daemons probably also have more nuanced and flexible policies. You also reminded me of a big factor I forgot to mention in the doc: firewalls. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJUd9MUAAoJELxHvGCsI27NlY0P/0MeYML3CCLlF3JHRDVy85CE FjjQlUjIH3wnTGuQJE/ooubWH8KslLhSq2PjBXMgxuObshf9DEHWHy7KNYvAJ+GE 1VMjONDV6uuZILLPur1UxFlSPrB2LfzBJCqLfx/LmtQFPoH3AztJnkyqLZIkVcMs X8IJ4Dv2kvX3q9oIXdqyiTECLSsAZ5GyhOcNPZGLdijaijWL6ajrpq74NE89cjNu TX4d5eR2WSJm18lQ3ViOwh4DmdRA/HeqtH/M3/DsDJvOP4D5lrERrc6ghBShZdsl dKndLPLWFTGGdV4DAbn96FBZQW9q2feRb+DBSdOXPlc8KqOFF2BMrb2a4tWv/szs uiTqsYTDj7TkvOLIR3Y1V1uRm6WvxdU5FKNH7+qouQg8G4hLPrcxmIGOTELDZtzn s30ffOScgM7kn3qb8hbs50peMDb3A67GXgNFnvFSf1eAaWJQdDbzYEfxzBzGvtvb DYCeavXAKC8LsgRIcfjnuhPuTfP0PSKX0RABgPR0hkt3TGsCObMSUETHD1IqRv+1 wWjLf+52Kn9ZwPxPxUt8yngaOZr9iGAKlQJJwoacujAFCjoGR+SflEojFjBcdyVV mZqgyDgSeAhPZyMIY5shY5VJcT7wBbUy8oLSEjdfOxrfUe4dHLPfGvPmv7U2sJQX rVwbNoRfYr2mhgLap7dN =UtrW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
