22) 
23) <I>tor</I>
24) 
25) is a connection-oriented anonymizing communication
26) service. Users choose a source-routed path through a set of nodes, and
27) negotiate a &quot;virtual circuit&quot; through the network, in which each node
28) knows its predecessor and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing down
29) the circuit is unwrapped by a symmetric key at each node, which reveals
30) the downstream node.
31) <P>
32) 
33) Basically <I>tor</I> provides a distributed network of servers (&quot;onion
34) routers&quot;). Users bounce their TCP streams -- web traffic, ftp, ssh, etc --
35) around the routers, and recipients, observers, and even the routers
36) themselves have difficulty tracking the source of the stream.

670) When this option is set to 1, Tor operates as an authoritative
671) directory server.  Instead of caching the directory, it generates its
672) own list of good servers, signs it, and sends that to the clients.
673) Unless the clients already have you listed as a trusted directory, you
674) probably do not want to set this option.  Please coordinate with the other
675) admins at <A HREF="mailto:tor-ops@freehaven.net">tor-ops@freehaven.net</A> if you think you should be a directory.
