Thank you for pointing me to the issue tracker, and thanks also to the
other list members who replied. I was pretty certain that I was not the
first person to ask for such a feature.

One surely can do mkfifo + cat.

P.S. Ha-ha.

Ralph,

I don't believe so based on what I've read.  I have not personally tried it.

[tor-relays] How to include files into torrc?

2016-09-09 Thread Ralph Seichter 
Hello,

is it possible to include files into torrc? Something like this:

  # /etc/tor/torrc
  ORPort 443
  # Policies are kept in separate file for readability
  Include /etc/tor/policies

I checked https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en but could
not find anything. As an alternative, one can of course generate torrc
from other files, but I'd rather use an include feature, if available.

The Tor Exits / relays I operate in the UK are done so in my capacity as an
ISP which as you mention has various protections.

Are you planning on doing this officially as part of the university (
https://ins.jku.at/infrastructure/tor-exit-node ) or are you a student /
faculty who wants to run a relay on spare hardware (and is therefore at the
will of the University AUP etc)?

I don't think you'll find any explicit protections in law and may even find
yourself at the receiving end of being designated a "communications service
provider" (especially so once the Investigatory Powers Bill comes into
force!)
