In the man page description of "HiddenServiceAuthorizeClient auth-type client-name,client-name,..."
we read "Valid client names are 1 to 16 characters long and only use characters in A-Za-z0-9+-_ (no spaces)." but it doesn't say where to find the client-name. Is it a hash ? How can I create it ? Is it a nickname for the client ? Shall I define it in the "torrc" file ?
