Chuck,<br><br>I'm only a step ahead of you in Linux but I found it dead easy to get an exit going using the instructions at https://www.torproject.org/docs/rpms.html.en once I worked out to use /el/6/ as the distribution when the os is Centos 6.<br><br>Robert<br><br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Hello all,</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I've run an exit node from my home in the past
using my consumer ISP service (Time Warner) and Windows 8, I'm pretty much of a
Windows guy (I make my living building business applications with Microsoft
tools) but now I have an opportunity to run an exit node on a hosted server
running CentOS linux. I've loaded CentOS at home to test it out and the problem
I'm having is that I can't get the Vidalia control to run. The browser bundle
works OK - I can open FireFox and make a Tor connection. As far as I know I've
downloaded the correct files for CentOS linux and I have the Vidalia start icon.
However nothing happened when I try to open the Vidalia icon. Since I'm not
familiar with linux, I don't know where to start looking. I had assumed that I
would just open Vidalia and set up my exit relay the same way I did on Windows
8.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I greatly appreciate help with this especially from
someone who's configured a relay on CentOS.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Thanks,</font></div>
