Anybody running a Tor server?

[Pangloss]

Just curious if anybody here has any experience running a Tor server. It's kinda the latest thing in web browsing anonymizers, but it relies on a third-party server to launder your packets along the way to their destination (as I understand it). I'm thinking about setting one up but I don't know all the ins and outs of it.

Thanks!

I've been using tor for a ver logn time -- way back when it only worked on Linux. I have run the actual server before, but I recentally installed ubuntu so didn't go through the trouble again. Right now I think I'm running just as a client.

 

I like it though. Giftd seems to keep me anonymous enough to shar all my files. And on top fo that I run peerguardian. Peerguardian is like a firewall that puts IPs against a blocklist. If the RIAA wants to download something, peerguardian resets the connection
