The log messages "Your Guard" make produce confusion, Looking at the latest code base I see the string "Your Guard" recurring.
Does this string actually refer to a Guard the user is responsible for operating and maintaining? Or does it refer to the guard the Tor client is connecting to on its first hop in the circuit? If it is not a guard operated by the person running the Tor client, then perhaps the string ought to read "The Guard" instead of "Your Guard". $ head -n 1 ChangeLog Changes in version 0.3.5.5-alpha - 2018-11-16 $ grep -n -r 'Your Guard' ./src/feature/client/circpathbias.c 1335: "Your Guard %s is failing to carry an extremely large " 1359: "Your Guard %s is failing to carry an extremely large " 1383: "Your Guard %s is failing to carry more streams on its " 1440: "Your Guard %s is failing an extremely large " 1464: "Your Guard %s is failing an extremely large " 1488: "Your Guard %s is failing a very large " 1513: "Your Guard %s is failing more circuits than " tor-0.3.4.8 seems to have different messages, but still the phrase "Your Guard" turns up. /Lars -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
