commit 8a341cc429879e642862cb16a9de5da889867020 Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@torproject.org> Date: Wed Jun 6 12:00:04 2012 -0400 Change the default for DynamicDHGroups to 0 This feature can make Tor relays less identifiable by their use of the mod_ssl DH group, but at the cost of some usability (#4721) and bridge tracing (#6087) regressions. We should try to turn this on by default again if we find that the mod_ssl group is uncommon and/or we move to a different DH group size (see #6088). Before we can do so, we need a fix for bugs #6087 and Resolves ticket #5598 for now. --- changes/bug5598 | 5 +++++ doc/tor.1.txt | 2 +- src/or/config.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/changes/bug5598 b/changes/bug5598 new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e8e6741 --- /dev/null +++ b/changes/bug5598 @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ + o Changed defaults: + - Change the default value for DynamicDHGroups to 0.
