A few of them are included in the Tor source distribution; you can +find the others in the main Tor repository. We don't guarantee that they're +particularly useful. + +dirauth-tools/ -- Tools useful for directory authority administrators +--------------------------------------------------------------------- + +add-tor is an old script to manipulate the approved-routers file. + +nagios-check-tor-authority-cert is a nagios script to check when Tor +authority certificates are expired or nearly expired. + +client-tools/ -- Tools for use with Tor clients +----------------------------------------------- + +torify is a small wrapper script around torsocks. + +tor-resolve.py uses Tor's SOCKS port extensions to perform DNS lookups. You +should probably use src/tools/tor-resolve instead. + +dist/ -- Scripts and files for use when packaging Tor +----------------------------------------------------- + +torctl, rc.subr, and tor.sh are init scripts for use with SysV-style init +tools. Everybody likes to write init scripts differently, it seems. + +tor.service is a sample service file for use with systemd. + +The suse/ subdirectory contains files used by the suse distribution. + +operator-tools/ -- Tools for Tor relay operators +------------------------------------------------ + +tor-exit-notice.html is an HTML file for use with the DirPortFrontPage +option. It tells visitors that your relay is a Tor exit node, and that they +shouldn't assume you're the origin for the traffic that you're delivering. + +tor.logrotate is a configuration file for use with the logrotate tool. You +may need to edit it to work for you. + +linux-tor-prio.sh uses Linux iptables tools to traffic-shape your Tor relay's +traffic. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces. + +or-tools/ -- Tools for interacting with relays +---------------------------------------------- + +checksocks.pl is a tool to scan relays to see if any of them have advertised +public SOCKS ports, so we can tell them not to. + +check-tor is a quick shell script to try doing a TLS handshake with a router +or to try fetching a directory from it. + +exitlist is a precursor of check.torproject.org: it parses a bunch of cached +server descriptors to determine which can connect to a given address:port. + +win32build -- Old files for windows packaging +--------------------------------------------- + +You shouldn't need these unless you're building some of the older Windows +packages. diff --git a/contrib/include.am b/contrib/include.am index ede9806..5d5f216 100644 --- a/contrib/include.am +++ b/contrib/include.am @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@
