I currently have my 0.2.4.17-rc installations set to this:
UseNTorHandshake auto
Although I can't be positive it was related, I first tried a setting of 1 on that, and had to eventually reload the relay's configs after changing this to 'auto' because it was stalling at starting up - seems a lot of the relays it 'knows' to talk to (or whatever is going on) still don't do NTor. As soon as I did so, it started right up like normal.
Hello,
I do not think setting this to 1 changes anything at the moment. According to man page this is used to override the directory authorities' "suggestion" on whether or not to use NTor. In the current situation when they already say "yes please do", setting 1 does not change anything, NTor would have been enabled anyway, no matter if it's "1" or "auto". In either case, this does not disable handling of TAP, nor make the router invisible in the node list for older clients.
