#12948: TBB Linux 4.0-Alpha-1 HashedControlPassword not working
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: vis15 | Owner: isis
Type: defect | Status: accepted
Priority: normal | Milestone: Tor: unspecified
Component: Tor | Version: Tor: unspecified
Resolution: | Keywords: TBB, Linux, HashedControlPassword,
Actual Points: | Alpha

Comment (by arma):
The plot thickens!
HashedControlPassword is special because of this entry in
option_abbrevs_[]:
{{{
{ "HashedControlPassword", "__HashedControlSessionPassword", 1, 0},
}}}
So when you say HashedControlPassword on the command-line, tor quietly
rewrites it for you so it's like you said __HashedControlSessionPassword.
And because the line starts with __, saveconf knows not to write it to the
torrc file for you.
At least, that's how it used to behave. It looks like 0.2.5.x might be
different now.
