It's been a "nice-to-have" for a while, and I think it's a good idea. Somebody should specify and implement it. If there's a decent spec and patch on an 0.2.0.x timeframe, I'd love to check it in. Here's what would need to be in the proposal: - Some way to configure which address:port combinations to listen on, and/or which to advertise.
I'd also like to see some discussion of the effect this is likely to havein environments that need to ban or limit Tor. Speaking only for myself, in an environment where I need to keep a lid on Tor usage, having to chase port settings around makes it more likely that I'm going to
move from limiting Tor to just plain banning it. cheers! ========================================================================== "A cat spends her life conflicted between a deep, passionate and profound desire for fish and an equally deep, passionate and profound desire to avoid getting wet.
