[tor-talk] Fwd: Need to know if this is a bug

Dear all ,

I just found out that the tor.exe included in the Tor Browser ( ver 5.5 )
for Windows bundle ( Tor ver 0.2.7.6 ) does not support TransPort and
TransListenAddress ... The error message given was :-


Jan 29 23:16:24.129 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: TransPort and
TransListenAddress are disabled in this build.
Jan 29 23:16:24.129 [err] Reading config failed--see warnings above.

Is this a deliberate design consideration or a bug ...

If we keep the tor.exe of both the browser bundle and expert bundles synced
I think it would be easier for users who would like to use Tor both as a
browser as well as a Transparent Proxy .


Thanking you ,
Yours sincerely ,
Siddhartha De
