It's also useful to run as an exit enclave for these purposes. You configure yourself as an exit but only to your public IP address. Then tor nodes will switch to using you to exit to you even when they use your non-onion address. There are advantages and disadvantages of exit enclaves vs onion hosts, but I don't see a reason to not do both on a site which is accessible both on the public internet and as a onion hidden service. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
