If you want to run a relay, on unixes, then install tor and configure it as a relay. We make an assumption that if you are running some sort of unix, you can handle your package management system, or compile from source, and edit the torrc file. You should easily be able to run both TBB and tor as a relay on your system. TBB on linux and osx randomizes controlport and socksport to avoid conflicts with tor's configured as a daemon via torrc. If you are on Windows, we don't have a solution yet for running TBB and Tor as a service. Well, to be more clear, we have the solution in randomizing ports, but Windows' anti-virus/anti-malware programs think tor is malware in this state for some silly reason. So because of these anti-user programs, Windows' users suffer for now. -- Andrew http://tpo.is/contact pgp 0x6B4D6475 _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
