    Simply edit the torrc while both Tor and Vidalia are closed. Vidalia
    edits the torrc file when changes are made using its interface; upon
    starting up, however, I believe it gathers its parameters directly
    from the torrc. In my experience when I write a custom torrc with
    Tor and Vidalia closed, and then start Vidalia (which in turns
    starts Tor), my custom torrc is overwritten, but upon careful
    observation of the new file, it can be seen that each of my settings
    remains the same, although reordered and with added header comments.

    

    I do wish there was a "do not edit torrc" or "confirm before editing
    torrc" option in Vidalia, but generally the changes it makes are
    harmless. C'est la vie.

      i am using Vidalia Bundle 0.2.1.29-0.2.10
      

      

      

      and i found in my torcc file this :

      

      

      

      This file was generated by Tor; if you edit it, comments will not
      be preserved

      # The old torrc file was renamed to torrc.orig.1 or similar, and
      Tor will ignore it

      

      # If set, Tor will accept connections from the same machine
      (localhost only)

      # on this port, and allow those connections to control the Tor
      process using

      # the Tor Control Protocol (described in control-spec.txt).

      ControlPort 9051

      # Where to send logging messages. Format is
      minSeverity[-maxSeverity]

      # (stderr|stdout|syslog|file FILENAME).

      Log notice stdout

      # Bind to this address to listen to connections from
      SOCKS-speaking

      # applications.

      SocksListenAddress 127.0.0.1

      

      

      

      

      so how i can control and  fix or define my exitnode????

      

      

      thx
