        <div>Hi all,</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I might miss the point, but as I also run Tor on Ubuntu, I
          can confirm it reads both config files, the default one and my
          torrc.</div>
        <div>The default one makes sure e.g. privilege dropping to user
          debian-tor and a few other things in case you miss to set them
          properly.</div>
        <div>My ORPort and other config is done via my torrc.</div>
        <div>And I would bet a cup of tasty coffee that Tor on Ubuntu
          looks for /etc/torrc and not for /etc/tor/torrc, but I always
          lose when I'm willing to bet, so I guess it's just a little
          stubborn.</div>
        <div><br>

        <div>Greetings to you all.</div>
