You don't need to do anything but run<br>> Tor.

Your Tor software<br>> randomly chooses a default set of three entry guards which are used<br>> for each of your circuits. These are used as long as everything<br>> remains basically stable and the same. Over time, some may be<br>> gradually replaced for various reasons.<br>> <br>> > <br>> > <br>> > Thx.....<br>> <br>> HTH,<br>> Paul<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> tor-talk mailing list<br>> tor-talk@lists.torproject.org<br>> https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk<br></div> </div></body>
