Hi! I was referred to you from [email protected]. when asking them if they discouraged from using tor as a client or node/relay with tor in a system installation. By "system installation" I mean installation of tor, libevent, libgeoip (and ev vidalia) together with openssl.
I found they today absolutely discouraged from the use of such a "system installation" when using tor as a client. When it came to using tor as a node/relay or running a server they referred the question to you. My reason for asking is that I have been running a "system installed" tor node in my Slackware server for 3 years now. subsequently updating/grading them. It has served well and I monitor the log continously for warnings or errors correcting the when they very rarely occur (usually by updating/_grading). My reason for using a system installation for node/server use is that I've found it easier to configure the way I wanted than the BrowserBundle. Do you consider this kind of installation insecure? Best regards Larse
