 I have been experimenting with the thought of running two Tor clients at
 once on my machine. So I decided to try it and modified the source a bit
 to let me run two clients at once (of course with separate data dirs). But
 they both get the same exit node, and if I try to switch exit node on one
 of them via its control port, they both get switched.

 I have been experimenting with this some more, and Tor always seem to get
 the same IP, even if I run several separate clients (on the same machine)
 at once.

 Is this the expected behavior?
