Nick Mathewson 954570486f Resolve a FIXME: use identity comparison, not nickname comparison, to
choose circuit ID types.  This is important because our view of "the
nickname of the router on the other side of this connection" is
skewed, and depends on whether we think the other rotuer is
verified--and there's no way to know whether another router thinks you
are verified.

For backward compatibility, we notice when the other router chooses
the same circuit ID type as us (because it's running an old version),
and switch our type to be polite.

'tor' is an implementation of The Onion Routing system, as
described in a bit more detail at http://www.onion-router.net/. You
can read list archives, and subscribe to the mailing list, at
http://archives.seul.org/or/dev/.

Is your question in the FAQ? Should it be?

See the INSTALL file for a quickstart. That is all you will probably need.

Do you want to run a tor server?

Do you want to run a hidden service?

Configuring tsocks:

  If you want to use Tor for protocols that can't use Privoxy, or
  with applications that are not socksified, then download tsocks
  (tsocks.sourceforge.net) and configure it to talk to localhost:9050
  as a socks4 server. My /etc/tsocks.conf simply has:
    server_port = 9050
    server = 127.0.0.1
  (I had to "cd /usr/lib; ln -s /lib/libtsocks.so" to get the tsocks
   library working after install, since my libpath didn't include /lib.)
  Then you can do "tsocks ssh arma@moria.mit.edu". But note that if
  ssh is suid root, you either need to do this as root, or cp a local
  version of ssh that isn't suid.

  (On Windows, you may want to look at the Hummingbird SOCKS client,
  or at SocksCap, instead.)
