Hello everyone!

I met some troubles when testing the new torrc.d-style configuration directories feature (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1922). Could anyone share some ideas on the problem, please? I will be really appreciated. The following is what I did:

1. add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/torproject.list: deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org tor-nightly-master-jessie main 2. update Tor to nightly version: sudo apt-get update 3. tor --version: Tor version 0.3.1.3-alpha-dev (git-a73d0fe9a87df762+b433dff). 4. sudo mkdir /etc/tor/services-available 5. sudo cp anon-connection-wizard.torrc /etc/tor/services-available/ 6. sudo mkdir /etc/tor/services-enable 7. sudo ln -s /etc/tor/services-available/anon-connection-wizard.torrc /etc/tor/services-enable/anon-connection-wizard.torrc 8. reload tor 9. since bridges are used in the anon-connection-wizard.torrc, when we use arm to check the connections, tor should connect to one of the bridges, if torrc.d style configuration worked. However, it didn't work.

I also tried to remove the /etc/tor/torrc, and tor could not find a torrc file anymore.

The latest related discussion on the ticket is as follows:

Weasel and I (aka Hans) sketched out how we would use it in the Debian package, closely following the Apache pattern but with naming that is more appropriate in Tor:

/etc/tor/torrc:: %include /etc/tor/services-enabled/*.torrc %include /etc/tor/instances-enabled/*.torrc

These dirs are present for the actual snippet files: /etc/tor/services-available /etc/tor/instances-available

These dirs include relative symlinks to *-available: /etc/tor/services-enabled /etc/tor/instances-enabled

For example: /etc/tor/services-enabled/sparkleshare.torrc --> ../services-available/sparkleshare.torrc

The sparkleshare package would include:

/etc/tor/services-available/sparkleshare.torrc

The davical package would include:

/etc/tor/services-available/davical.torrc

So I assumed it still worked.

Could anyone please help me point out what I have done wrong? Or could anyone please point me to some docs about the new feature? I can see the source code of core Tor and write some docs on this, if this will be helpful, btw :)

I really appreciate your help! Thank you!

Best, iry
