I saw your previous email with this description for multiple tor
instances on OpenBSD, but it is my intention to get multi-instance
support into the upstream package - also for OpenBSD.

For the following reasons:

- - we prefer having a single line in /etc/login.conf for all tor
instances, no matter how many you run (compared to N lines if you run
N tor instances) This is the reason we assign a custom login class to
the _tor user (as you probably saw)
- - no need to copy files in /etc/rc.d/

- - we can simply rely on ansible's service module without "manually"
tweaking rc.conf.local with a file module (manually tweaking it is
assumed to be more error prone)

- - fewer lines are easier to maintain (and faster generated)


In the meantime (and as an alternative approach) I will simply go with
rc.local.


Thanks for your feedback.


btw: github restored my account - repo is available again
