2009-01-18README.Debian: No longer claim we change the default 'Group' setting when runPeter Palfrader
as debian-user. That setting no longer exists. svn:r18159
2008-02-23Update debian defaults in preparation for starting as root.Peter Palfrader
Previously the debian defaults were only loaded when we started Tor as the debian-tor user. Now they are also loaded when started as root. In addition to logging, pidfile, datadir and runasdaemon we also change the User and Group options from their NULL default to "debian-tor" so that Tor correctly setuids/setgids to the role user the package created. This will allow us to start the daemon as root. svn:r13685
2006-07-24Previously our defaults for DataDirectory, PidFile, RunAsDaemon, andPeter Palfrader
Log differed from upstreams. Now Tor behaves just like before (with our own DataDirectory and all) only when run as the debian-tor user. If invoked as any other user, Tor will behave just like the pristine upstream version. svn:r6821
2005-04-20Update README.Debian to say that upstream now does have a default for ↵debian-version-0.1.0.17-1debian-version-0.1.0.16-1debian-version-0.1.0.15-1Peter Palfrader

2004-11-12Do not patch the default torrc to include settings we really want. Instead ↵Peter Palfrader
