You can fully control Tor thru Tor Control Port. But it isnt end-user functionality, you will have to write some controlling program. I used this feature in my own app and works quite well. Marek On Fri, Aug 14, 2009 at 8:49 PM, Mmangobl...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Could someone please answer

I have a laptop with the Debian Lenny AMD64 and I want to start several Tor daemons in one moment, each for every user. I'm not sure how to do it for each user, but basically you have to give each tor it's own torrc. So for instance, you can create /etc/tor/tor2 /etc/tor/tor3, etc. In the
