This is the Debian package for Tor, The Onion Router. If Tor is started by the init script, it loads the configuration snippets from /usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc before consulting /etc/tor/torrc. The tor-service-defaults-torrc file tells Tor to run as daemon, create pidfile, sets its data directory and configures cookie authentication. If Tor is started not from the init script, then it will behave like upstream's Tor. -- Peter Palfrader, Mon, 24 Jul 2006 05:20:30 +0200 Sat, 23 Feb 2008 13:44:40 +0100 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:31:44 +0100
