If you don't want to run as an exit node, your torrc file is correctly
configured. You can always check one of the TorStatus websites:
http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/ (usually updated after an hour or so). Do a
search for your IP or Nickname. In your case, you should *not* see an image
of a small door.


On a side note, have you considered running as a bridge?
