allô ... merci (encore) pour votre réponse ...
So you don't have ControlPort anywhere in your torrc file?
"TOR Hacker"Well, like I "said",
I extracted the torrc. file from the Vidalia bundle and
then simply added the 2 code lines I previously posted ...
so I did not edit my torrc AND add a ControlPort line; however,
the torrc file I extracted from the Vidalia bundle has a ControlPort line»
# If non-zero, try to write to disk less frequently than we would otherwise.
AvoidDiskWrites 1
# Store working data, state, keys, and caches here.
DataDirectory .\Data
GeoIPFile .\Data\geoip
# Where to send logging messages. Format is minSeverity[-maxSeverity]
# (stderr|stdout|syslog|file FILENAME).
Log notice stdout
# Bind to this address to listen to connections from SOCKS-speaking
# applications.
SocksListenAddress 127.0.0.1
SocksPort 9150
ControlPort 9151
I would presume your & every (current) torrc file is the same (or similar) ...
which would mean your & every Tor connection would/should have this issue ...???
unless using this torrc file through Vidalia somehow provides the/a "fix"?
(like I "said", I do not use Vidalia ... for one reason because of the (way) out of date Mozilla Firefox)
How would I go about
adding a HashedControlPassword or CookieAuthentication line
?
Also, does anyone know how often (in general) Tor switches servers/countries?
What about customizing that item? via the torrc file? or some other method?

Hallo ...
Today - for some unknown reason (maybe because I now have the minimum # of required posts?) -
I have an EDIT button - only on this (my most recent post) ...
1) Anyway, further to what I posted above ...
The Tor DOSbox does NOT give that message when I use the Vidalia torrc file
(with the ControlPort line in it!) without the 2 lines of code I added ...
(which is (also) something I already "said" previously/above ...)
so it is not having ControlPort in the torrc file that brings about that message ...
The message appears after I add those 2 lines of code ... Why???
2) How would I go about
adding a HashedControlPassword or CookieAuthentication line
?
3) Also, does anyone know how often (in general) Tor switches servers/countries?
