But you shouldn't do that; you lose anonymity when your own host connects to the DNS server! You should use privoxy as a HTTP proxy instead; see doc/CLIENTS in the Tor distribution for more information about why and how. If this problem persists when you're using privoxy, please let us know. yrs, -- Nick Mathewson (PGP key will change on 15Aug2004; see http://wangafu.net/key.txt)
