Few days ago I've successfully combined Tor and PHP and am utilizing them now. Regarding Tor nodes... where is that list stored on a computer. I am currently harvesting http://belegost.mit.edu/tor/ and using regular expression to put each node in a DB by its name, uptime, IP...etc. This makes me

I've found put that if I want to make nobody utilize Tor I must submit FULL path to Tor Like: /usr/local/bin/tor If I just type tor than it doesn't work. Now, when I try to execute Tor command like nobody I get this message: [notice] Tor v0.1.1.26. This is experimental software. Do not rely on

Actually Windows does exactly the same thing... I'm sorry I have started this discussion, which is off-topic for this list. My point is merely that giving user ``nobody'' access to tor's data is a tragically bad idea. This has nothing to do with Windows.

Um .. send the signal to the pid of tor? (or do it the lazy way and do 'killall -SIGNAL tor' from the command line) see the PidFile part of torrc. Something sensible like /var/run/tor.pid comes to mind ... Then just 'kill $signal $pid'. Note : to make this work, the command that executes the

To shorten... How do I allow nobody to utilize Tor (It can already do that but I must start it like a root and stop it like a root) Please don't. The very reason Unix is more secure than Windows is that Unix actively uses the permission system to prevent insecure things like PHP from munging
