 to? I cannot find option related to guard setting in Tor-0.3.0.3's man
 page.

 Tor guards turn out to be special hop, namely entry node. The link above
 discourage manually setting EntryExit:


 {{{
 We recommend you do not use these — they are intended for testing and may
 disappear in future versions. You get the best security that Tor can
 provide when you leave the route selection to Tor; overriding the entry /
 exit nodes can mess up your anonymity in ways we don't understand.
