Hi again,
is the dir port on a nonexit node a god ide ?

Having a separate DirPort open matters less and less these days.

In the past it used to be the signal for clients about whether you
are providing cached directory information. Now every relay does that
by default, and clients fetch it via the encrypted ORPort connection,
so your DirPort will go mostly unused these days.

So, "feel free if it's easy, but also feel free not to."

Thanks for running a relay!

Also, you won't set DirPortFrontPage since you aren't an exit. (This is
the only way I could come up with why asking about DirPort in the
context of exit vs non-exit made sense)

Hope that helps

Matt
