Sorry if asked before, made a stupid oversight restarting one of my exits yesterday, had duplicated the fingerprint file from another node. Changed the file to the correct nickname today (I know nicknames are depreciated now) and reset tor, how long will it take this change to propogate to the network?
Hi Jason,
The fingerprint file is just written out for your benefit. It's never used by the relay -- the relay uses the actual key, not just the fingerprint of the key.
See also https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq#UpgradeOrMove for more details about what counts as your relay's soul. :)
Thanks! --Roger
