+Changing the network address: + + Chutney defaults to binding to localhost. To change the bind address, + set the CHUTNEY_LISTEN_ADDRESS environment variable. Setting it to some + interface's IP address allows us to make the simulated Tor network + available on the network. + + IPv6 support for both Tor and Chutney is a work in progress. If your system + returns IPv6 ::1 as the (first) address for localhost, you might need to + set CHUTNEY_LISTEN_ADDRESS="127.0.0.1" for chutney to work. + The configuration files: networks/basic holds the configuration for the network you're configuring above. It refers to some torrc template files in torrc_templates/.
