Sorry not fully read the correspondence here but perhaps a tidier option might be the one recommended on the tor website[1] of doing sudo adduser $USER debian-tor The alternative of running as the debian-tor user is a 'bad idea', see [2] from last July [1] https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-relay-debian.html.en#after [2] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays/2016-July/009608.html _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
