Hi, i have read in the rend-spec.txt:
Bob's OP opens a stream to each directory server's directory port via Tor. (He may re-use old circuits for this.) Over this stream, Bob's OP makes an HTTP POST' request, to a URL "/tor/rendezvous/publish" relative to the directory server's root, containing as its body Bob's service descriptor. Alice opens a stream to a directory server via Tor, and makes an HTTP GET request for the document '/tor/rendezvous/<z>' (...) (She may re-use old circuits for this.) and have one question for understanding: Are the "streams" from Bob and Alice to put & get the descriptor of a hidden service always established over Tor circuits or sometimes direct streams from the OP's to the Tor directory server? In other words: Is it assured, that the directory server doesn't know, that "Bob" has established a hidden service and "Alice" has asked about it? -- Ciao Kai Homepage: http://hp.kairaven.de/ Weblog: http://blog.kairaven.de/
