Re: [tor-talk] Confusion about Tor log messages showing relay addresses

Follow up. Noticed that almost every address listed as a WARNING in

For the last relay in the network map list, the addresses building,
then immediately closing, were flying by like a stock ticker. I
refreshed the network & waited till it stabilized. That *somewhat*
slowed the # of addresses building / opening, then immediately
closing. Result was the same. All addresses being listed, where "one
of your applications [apparently Tor] established a connection
through Tor (then lists address), using a protocol that may leak
information.... "
I don't know the real cause or problem, but it seems the warning
message is misleading about what's really happening.
Is this a glitch in the type of messages generated for Tor circuits /
addresses being closed;
or is there potentially a real problem here or is something possibly
not setup correctly in my Tor / TBB installation?
Wow, absolutely no ideas about the cause, validity / non validity of
these warning messages?
