-------------------------+--------------------------
 I need a bit more clarification on these options, I am not sure I
 understand it correctly.
 To avoid confusion between terms (client, server, socks, proxy, etc), I
 better explain exactly what I am doing:

 I use commands like torsocks with wget to get content from .onion
 website(s), like so:

 **torsocks wget somewebsite12345.onion/file.html**

 but network is not very reliable and I want to try that from additional
 locations (additional "tor clients" I guess).

 I understand I can configure my additional servers to connect to tor, I
 did this by enabling this in my second server **torrc** file:

 # listen on own server 2 IP
 SOCKSPort 2.2.2.2:9050

 # allow connections from server 1 IP
 SOCKSPolicy accept 1.1.1.1
 SOCKSPolicy reject *

 So now from my server 1.1.1.1 I can connect to tor network using second
 server like this:

 **torsocks --address 2.2.2.2 wget somewebsite12345.onion/file.html**

 But my server 1 IP is not static, considering all the many options inside
 **torrc** and **torsocks.conf** , is there an option to configure
 autentication for the above ? (So I can then set server 2 torrc file to
 allow connections from any ip).
