It looks like when the consensus is older than 5 days, a directory authority is used (and the UseEntryGuardsAsDirGuards setting basically ignored). I can't think of a good reason for that behavior. Is there a valid security issue using an old consensus to fetch the current one from the entry guard? _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
