+\fBServerDNSRandomizeCase \fR\fB0\fR|\fB1\fR\fP
+When this option is set, Tor sets the case of each character randomly in
+outgoing DNS requests, and makes sure that the case matches in DNS replies.
+This so-called "0x20 hack" helps resist some types of DNS poisoning attack.
+For more information, see "Increased DNS Forgery Resistance through 0x20-Bit
+Encoding".
+This option only affects name lookups that your server does on
+behalf of clients.
