We do this by optimistically trying to fetch a new directory whenever an application request comes in and we think we're offline -- the human is hopefully a good measure of when the network is back. - Backport some minimal hidserv bugfixes: keep rend circuits open as long as you keep using them; actually publish hidserv descriptors shortly after they change, rather than waiting 20-40 minutes. - Enable Mac startup script by default. - Fix duplicate dns_cancel_pending_resolve reported by Giorgos Pallas. - When you update AllowUnverifiedNodes or FirewallPorts via the controller's setconf feature, we were always appending, never resetting. - When you update HiddenServiceDir via setconf, it was screwing up the order of reading the lines, making it fail. - Do not rewrite a cached directory back to the cache; otherwise we will think it is recent and not fetch a newer one on startup. - Workaround for webservers that lie about Content-Encoding: Tor now tries to autodetect compressed directories and compression itself. This lets us Proxypass dir fetches through apache. ---------- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org";>leitl</a> ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144 http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature] --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R.
