21) <H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
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 "virtual circuit" 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 ("onion
34) routers"). 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.
37) <A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
38) <H2>OPTIONS</H2>
39)
40) <B>-h, -help</B>
41) Display a short help message and exit.
42) <DL COMPACT>
43) <DT><B>-f </B><I>FILE</I><DD>
44) FILE contains further "option value" pairs. (Default: @CONFDIR@/torrc)
45) <DT>Other options can be specified either on the command-line (<I>--option<DD>
46) value</I>), or in the configuration file (<I>option value</I>).
47) Options are case-insensitive.
48) <DT><B>Log </B><I>minSeverity</I>[-<I>maxSeverity</I>] <B>stderr</B>|<B>stdout</B>|<B>syslog</B><DD>
49) Send all messages between <I>minSeverity</I> and <I>maxSeverity</I> to
50) the standard output stream, the standard error stream, or to the system
51) log. (The "syslog" value is only supported on Unix.) Recognized
52) severity levels are debug, info, notice, warn, and err. If only one
53) severity level is given, all messages of that level or higher will be
54) sent to the listed destination.
55) <DT><B>Log </B><I>minSeverity</I>[-<I>maxSeverity</I>] <B>file</B> <I>FILENAME</I><DD>
56) As above, but send log messages to the listed filename. The "Log"
57) option may appear more than once in a configuration file. Messages
58) are sent to all the logs that match their severity level.
59) <DT><B>BandwidthRate </B><I>N</I> <B>bytes</B>|<B>KB</B>|<B>MB</B>|<B>GB</B>|<B>TB</B><DD>
60) A token bucket limits the average incoming bandwidth on this node to
61) the specified number of bytes per second. (Default: 780 KB)
62) <DT><B>BandwidthBurst </B><I>N</I> <B>bytes</B>|<B>KB</B>|<B>MB</B>|<B>GB</B>|<B>TB</B><DD>
63) Limit the maximum token bucket size (also known as the burst) to the given number of bytes. (Default: 48 MB)

65) If set, we will not advertise more than this amount of bandwidth for our
66) BandwidthRate. Server operators who want to reduce the number of clients
67) who ask to build circuits through them (since this is proportional to
68) advertised bandwidth rate) can thus reduce the CPU demands on their
69) server without impacting network performance.

70) <DT><B>DataDirectory </B><I>DIR</I><DD>
71) Store working data in DIR (Default: @LOCALSTATEDIR@/lib/tor)
72) <DT><B>DirServer </B><I>address:port fingerprint</I><DD>
73) Use a nonstandard authoritative directory server at the provided
74) address and port, with the specified key fingerprint. This option can
75) be repeated many times, for multiple authoritative directory
76) servers. If no <B>dirserver</B> line is given, Tor will use the default
77) directory servers: moria1, moria2, and tor26.
78) <DT><B>Group </B><I>GID</I><DD>
79) On startup, setgid to this user.
80) <DT><B>HttpProxy</B> <I>host</I>[:<I>port</I>]<DD>
81) If set, Tor will make all its directory requests through this host:port,
82) rather than connecting directly to any directory servers.
83) <DT><B>HttpsProxy</B> <I>host</I>[:<I>port</I>]<DD>
84) If set, Tor will make all its OR (SSL) connections through this host:port,
85) via HTTP CONNECT, rather than connecting directly to servers.
86) <DT><B>KeepalivePeriod </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
87) To keep firewalls from expiring connections, send a padding keepalive
88) cell on open connections every NUM seconds. (Default: 5 minutes.)
89) <DT><B>MaxConn </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
90) Maximum number of simultaneous sockets allowed. You probably don't need
91) to adjust this. (Default: 1024)
92) <DT><B>OutboundBindAddress </B><I>IP</I><DD>
93) Make all outbound connections originate from the IP address specified. This
94) is only useful when you have multiple network interfaces, and you want all
95) of Tor's outgoing connections to use a single one.
96) <DT><B>PIDFile </B><I>FILE</I><DD>
97) On startup, write our PID to FILE. On clean shutdown, remove FILE.
98) <DT><B>RunAsDaemon </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
99) If 1, Tor forks and daemonizes to the background. (Default: 0)
100) <DT><B>User </B><I>UID</I><DD>
101) On startup, setuid to this user.
102) <DT><B>ControlPort </B><I>Port</I><DD>
103) If set, Tor will accept connections from the same machine (localhost only) on
104) this port, and allow those connections to control the Tor process using the
105) Tor Control Protocol (described in control-spec.txt). Note: unless you also
106) specify one of <B>HashedControlPassword</B> or <B>CookieAuthentication</B>,
107) setting this option will cause Tor to allow any process on the local host to
108) control it.
109) <DT><B>HashedControlPassword </B><I>hashed_password</I><DD>
110) Don't allow any connections on the control port except when the other process
111) knows the password whose one-way hash is <I>hashed_password</I>. You can
112) compute the hash of a password by running "tor --hash-password
113) <I>password</I>".
114) <DT><B>CookieAuthentication </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
115) If this option is set to 1, don't allow any connections on the control port
116) except when the connecting process knows the contents of a file named
117) "control_auth_cookie", which Tor will create in its data directory. This
118) authentication methods should only be used on systems with good filesystem
119) security.
120) <B>DirFetchPeriod </B><I>N</I> <B>seconds</B>|<B>minutes</B>|<B>hours</B>|<B>days</B>|<B>weeks</B>
121) Every time the specified period elapses, Tor downloads a directory.
122) A directory contains a signed list of all known servers as well as
123) their current liveness status. A value of "0 seconds" tells Tor to choose an
124) appropriate default. (Default: 1 hour for clients, 20 minutes for servers.)
125) <DT><B>StatusFetchPeriod </B><I>N</I> <B>seconds</B>|<B>minutes</B>|<B>hours</B>|<B>days</B>|<B>weeks</B> Every time the<DD>
126) specified period elapses, Tor downloads signed status information about the
127) current state of known servers. A value of "0 seconds" tells Tor to choose
128) an appropriate default. (Default: 30 minutes for clients, 15 minutes for
129) servers.) (Default: 20 minutes.)
130) <DT><B>RendPostPeriod </B><I>N</I> <B>seconds</B>|<B>minutes</B>|<B>hours</B>|<B>days</B>|<B>weeks</B><DD>
131) Every time the specified period elapses, Tor uploads any rendezvous
132) service descriptors to the directory servers. This information is also
133) uploaded whenever it changes. (Default: 20 minutes.)

136) <A NAME="lbAF"> </A>
137) <H2>CLIENT OPTIONS</H2>
138)
139) <P>
140)
141) The following options are useful only for clients (that is, if <B>SOCKSPort</B> is non-zero):
142) <DL COMPACT>
143) <DT><B>AllowUnverifiedNodes</B> <B>entry</B>|<B>exit</B>|<B>middle</B>|<B>introduction</B>|<B>rendezvous</B>|...<DD>
144) Where on our circuits should we allow Tor servers that the directory
145) servers haven't authenticated as "verified"? (Default: middle,rendezvous.)
146) <DT><B>ClientOnly </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
147) If set to 1, Tor will under no circumstances run as a server. (Usually,
148) you don't need to set this; Tor is pretty smart at figuring out whether
149) you are reliable and high-bandwidth enough to be a good server.)
150) <DT><B>EntryNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
151) A list of preferred nodes to use for the first hop in the circuit, if possible.
152) <DT><B>ExitNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
153) A list of preferred nodes to use for the last hop in the circuit, if possible.
154) <DT><B>ExcludeNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
155) A list of nodes to never use when building a circuit.
156) <DT><B>StrictExitNodes </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
157) If 1, Tor will never use any nodes besides those listed in "exitnodes" for
158) the last hop of a circuit.
159) <DT><B>StrictEntryNodes </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
160) If 1, Tor will never use any nodes besides those listed in "entrynodes" for
161) the first hop of a circuit.
162) <DT><B>FascistFirewall </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
163) If 1, Tor will only create outgoing connections to ORs running on ports that
164) your firewall allows (defaults to 80 and 443; see <B>FirewallPorts</B>). This will
165) allow you to run Tor as a client behind a firewall with restrictive policies,
166) but will not allow you to run as a server behind such a firewall.
167) <DT><B>FirewallPorts </B><I>PORTS</I><DD>
168) A list of ports that your firewall allows you to connect to. Only used when
169) <B>FascistFirewall</B> is set. (Default: 80, 443.)
170) <DT><B>LongLivedPorts </B><I>PORTS</I><DD>
171) A list of ports for services that tend to have long-running connections
172) (e.g. chat and interactive shells). Circuits for streams that use these
173) ports will contain only high-uptime nodes, to reduce the chance that a
174) node will go down before the stream is finished.

176) When a request for address arrives to Tor, it will rewrite it to newaddress before processing it. For example, if you always want connections to <A HREF="http://www.indymedia.org">www.indymedia.org</A> to exit via <I>torserver</I> (where <I>torserver</I> is the nickname of the server), use "MapAddress <A HREF="http://www.indymedia.org">www.indymedia.org</A> <A HREF="http://www.indymedia.org.torserver.exit">www.indymedia.org.torserver.exit</A>".

177) <DT><B>NewCircuitPeriod </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
178) Every NUM seconds consider whether to build a new circuit. (Default: 60)
179) <DT><B>MaxCircuitDirtiness </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
180) Feel free to reuse a circuit that was first used at most NUM seconds
181) ago, but never attach a new stream to a circuit that is too old.
182) <DT><B>NodeFamily </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
183) The named Tor servers constitute a "family" of similar or co-administered
184) servers, so never use any two of them in the same circuit. Defining a
185) NodeFamily is only needed when a server doesn't list the family itself
186) (with MyFamily). This option can be used multiple times.
187) <DT>
188) <DD>
189)
190)
191) <B>RendNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I>
192) A list of preferred nodes to use for the rendezvous point, if possible.
193) <DT><B>RendExcludeNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
194) A list of nodes to never use when choosing a rendezvous point.
195) <DT><B>SOCKSPort </B><I>PORT</I><DD>
196) Bind to this port to listen for connections from SOCKS-speaking applications.
197) Set this to 0 if you don't want to allow application connections. (Default:
198) 9050)
199) <DT><B>SOCKSBindAddress </B><I>IP</I><DD>
200) Bind to this address to listen for connections from SOCKS-speaking applications. (Default: 127.0.0.1) You can also specify a port (e.g. 192.168.0.1:9100). This directive can be specified multiple times to bind to multiple addresses/ports.
201) <DT><B>SOCKSPolicy </B><I>policy</I>,<I>policy</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
202) Set an entrance policy for this server, to limit who can connect to the SOCKS ports. The policies have the same form as exit policies below.
203) <DT><B>TrackHostExits </B><I>host1</I>,<I>.domain1</I>|<I>.</I><DD>
204) For each value in the comma separated list, Tor will track recent connections
205) to hosts that match this value and attempt to
206) reuse the same exit node for each. If the value is prepended with a '.', it is
207) treated as matching an entire domain. If one of the values is just a '.', it
208) means match everything. This option is useful if you frequently connect to
209) sites that will expire all your authentication cookies (ie log you out) if
210) your IP address changes. Note that this option does have the disadvantage of
211) making it more clear that a given history is
212) associated with a single user. However, most people who would wish to observe
213) this will observe it through cookies or other protocol-specific means anyhow.
214) <DT><B>TrackHostExitsExpire </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
215) Since exit servers go up and down, it is desirable to expire the association
216) between host and exit server after NUM seconds of inactivity. The default
217) is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
218) <P>
219) </DL>
220) <A NAME="lbAG"> </A>
221) <H2>SERVER OPTIONS</H2>
222)
223) <P>
224)
225) The following options are useful only for servers (that is, if <B>ORPort</B> is non-zero):
226) <DL COMPACT>
227) <DT><B>Address </B><I>address</I><DD>
228) The IP or fqdn of this server (e.g. moria.mit.edu). You can leave this
229) unset, and Tor will guess your IP.
230) <DT><B>ContactInfo </B><I>email_address</I><DD>
231) Administrative contact information for server.
232) <DT><B>ExitPolicy </B><I>policy</I>,<I>policy</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
233) Set an exit policy for this server. Each policy is of the form
234) "<B>accept</B>|<B>reject</B> <I>ADDR</I>[<B>/</B><I>MASK</I>]<B>:</B><I>PORT</I>".
235) If <B>/</B><I>MASK</I> is omitted then this policy just applies to the host
236) given. Instead of giving a host or network you can also use "<B>*</B>" to
237) denote the universe (0.0.0.0/0). <I>PORT</I> can be a single port number,
238) an interval of ports "<I>FROM_PORT</I><B>-</B><I>TO_PORT</I>", or "<B>*</B>".
239) <P>
240) For example, "reject 127.0.0.1:*,reject 192.168.1.0/24:*,accept *:*" would
241) reject any traffic destined for localhost and any 192.168.1.* address, but
242) accept anything else.
243) <P>
244) This directive can be specified multiple times so you don't have to put
245) it all on one line.
246) <P>
247) See RFC 3330 for more details about internal and reserved IP address
248) space. Policies are considered first to last, and the first match wins. If
249) you want to _replace_ the default exit policy, end your exit policy with
250) either a reject *:* or an accept *:*. Otherwise, you're _augmenting_
251) (prepending to) the default exit policy. The default exit policy is:

274)
275) <DT><B>MaxOnionsPending </B><I>NUM</I><DD>
276) If you have more than this number of onionskins queued for decrypt, reject new ones. (Default: 100)
277) <DT><B>MyFamily </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
278) Declare that this Tor server is controlled or administered by a group
279) or organization identical or similar to that of the other named servers.
280) When two servers both declare that they are in the same 'family', Tor clients
281) will not use them in the same circuit. (Each server only needs to list the
282) other servers in its family; it doesn't need to list itself, but it won't hurt.)
283) <DT><B>Nickname </B><I>name</I><DD>
284) Set the server's nickname to 'name'.
285) <DT><B>NumCPUs </B><I>num</I><DD>
286) How many processes to use at once for decrypting onionskins. (Default: 1)
287) <DT><B>ORPort </B><I>PORT</I><DD>
288) Bind to this port to listen for connections from Tor clients and servers.
289) <DT><B>ORBindAddress </B><I>IP</I><DD>
290) Bind to this address to listen for connections from Tor clients and servers. (Default: 0.0.0.0)
291) <DT><B>RedirectExit </B><I>pattern target</I><DD>
292) Whenever an outgoing connection tries to connect to one of a given set
293) of addresses, connect to <I>target</I> (an <I>address:port</I> pair) instead.
294) The address
295) pattern is given in the same format as for an exit policy. The
296) address translation applies after exit policies are applied. Multiple
297) <B>RedirectExit</B> options can be used: once any one has matched
298) successfully, no subsequent rules are considered. You can specify that no
299) redirection is to be performed on a given set of addresses by using the
300) special target string "pass", which prevents subsequent rules from being
301) considered.
302) <DT><B>ShutdownWaitLength</B><I>NUM</I><DD>
303) When we get a SIGINT and we're a server, we begin shutting down: we close
304) listeners and start refusing new circuits. After <B>NUM</B> seconds,
305) we exit. If we get a second SIGINT, we exit immediately. (Default:
306) 30 seconds)
307) <DT><B>DirPostPeriod </B><I>N</I> <B>seconds</B>|<B>minutes</B>|<B>hours</B>|<B>days</B>|<B>weeks</B><DD>
308) Every time the specified period elapses, Tor uploads its server
309) descriptors to the directory servers. This information is also
310) uploaded whenever it changes. (Default: 20 minutes.)
311) <DT><B>AccountingMax </B><I>N</I> <B>bytes</B>|<B>KB</B>|<B>MB</B>|<B>GB</B>|<B>TB</B><DD>
312) Never send more than the specified number of bytes in a given
313) accounting period, or receive more than that number in the period.
314) When the number of bytes is exhausted, Tor will hibernate until some
315) time in the next accounting period. To prevent all servers from
316) waking at the same time, Tor will also wait until a random point in
317) each period before waking up. If you have bandwidth cost issues,

328) day of one week to the same day and time of the next week, with Monday
329) as day 1 and Sunday as day 7. If <B>day</B> is given, each accounting
330) period runs from the time <I>HH:MM</I> each day to the same time on the
331) next day. All times are local, and given in 24-hour time. (Defaults to

340) The following options are useful only for directory servers (that is, if <B>DirPort</B> is non-zero):
341) <DL COMPACT>
342) <DT><B>AuthoritativeDirectory </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
343) When this option is set to 1, Tor operates as an authoritative
344) directory server. Instead of caching the directory, it generates its
345) own list of good servers, signs it, and sends that to the clients.
346) Unless the clients already have you listed as a trusted directory, you
347) probably do not want to set this option. Please coordinate with the other
348) admins at <A HREF="mailto:tor-ops@freehaven.net">tor-ops@freehaven.net</A> if you think you should be a directory.
349) <DT><B>DirPort </B><I>PORT</I><DD>
350) Bind the directory service to this port.
351) <DT><B>DirBindAddress </B><I>IP</I><DD>
352) Bind the directory service to this address. (Default: 0.0.0.0)
353) <DT><B>DirPolicy </B><I>policy</I>,<I>policy</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
354) Set an entrance policy for this server, to limit who can connect to the directory ports. The policies have the same form as exit policies above.
355) <DT><B>RecommendedVersions </B><I>STRING</I><DD>
356) STRING is a command-separated list of Tor versions currently believed
357) to be safe. The list is included in each directory, and nodes which
358) pull down the directory learn whether they need to upgrade. This
359) option can appear multiple times: the values from multiple lines are
360) spliced together.
361) <DT><B>DirAllowPrivateAddresses </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
362) If set to 1, Tor will accept router descriptors with arbitrary "Address"
363) elements. Otherwise, if the address is not an IP or is a private IP,
364) it will reject the router descriptor. Defaults to 0.
365) <DT><B>RunTesting </B><B>0</B>|<B>1</B><DD>
366) If set to 1, Tor tries to build circuits through all of the servers it
367) knows about, so it can tell which are up and which are down. This
368) option is only useful for authoritative directories, so you probably
369) don't want to use it.

373) <H2>HIDDEN SERVICE OPTIONS</H2>
374)
375) <P>
376)
377) The following options are used to configure a hidden service.
378) <DL COMPACT>
379) <DT><B>HiddenServiceDir </B><I>DIRECTORY</I><DD>
380) Store data files for a hidden service in DIRECTORY. Every hidden
381) service must have a separate directory. You may use this option multiple
382) times to specify multiple services.
383) <DT><B>HiddenServicePort </B><I>VIRTPORT </I>[<I>TARGET</I>]<DD>
384) Configure a virtual port VIRTPORT for a hidden service. You may use this
385) option multiple times; each time applies to the service using the most recent
386) hiddenservicedir. By default, this option maps the virtual port to the
387) same port on 127.0.0.1. You may override the target port, address, or both
388) by specifying a target of addr, port, or addr:port.
389) <DT><B>HiddenServiceNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
390) If possible, use the specified nodes as introduction points for the hidden
391) service. If this is left unset, Tor will be smart and pick some reasonable
392) ones; most people can leave this unset.
393) <DT><B>HiddenServiceExcludeNodes </B><I>nickname</I>,<I>nickname</I>,<I>...</I><DD>
394) Do not use the specified nodes as introduction points for the hidden
395) service. In normal use there is no reason to set this.

402) <H2>SIGNALS</H2>
403)
404) Tor catches the following signals:
405) <DL COMPACT>
406) <DT><B>SIGTERM</B><DD>
407) Tor will catch this, clean up and sync to disk if necessary, and exit.
408) <DT><B>SIGINT</B><DD>
409) Tor clients behave as with SIGTERM; but Tor servers will do a controlled
410) slow shutdown, closing listeners and waiting 30 seconds before exiting.
411) <DT><B>SIGHUP</B><DD>
412) The signal instructs Tor to reload its configuration (including closing
413) and reopening logs), fetch a new directory, and kill and restart its
414) helper processes if applicable.
415) <DT><B>SIGUSR1</B><DD>
416) Log statistics about current connections, past connections, and
417) throughput.
418) <DT><B>SIGUSR2</B><DD>
419) Switch all logs to loglevel debug. You can go back to the old loglevels
420) by sending a SIGHUP.
421) <DT><B>SIGCHLD</B><DD>
422) Tor receives this signal when one of its helper processes has exited,
423) so it can clean up.
424) <DT><B>SIGPIPE</B><DD>
425) Tor catches this signal and ignores it.
426) <DT><B>SIGXFSZ</B><DD>
427) If this signal exists on your platform, Tor catches and ignores it.
