I was wondering whether OnionCat opens a new circuit for each packet stream, and whether tinc (like OpenVPN) instead uses circuits on longer timescales. I suppose that I could log that, and see.
OnionCat doesn't talk to tor controller to "open" and manage its own circuits, it's subject to SocksPort circuitry in tor(1). onion to onion uses same circuit, while circuit remains valid. usefeature extended_events verbose_names setevents stream circ
OK, thanks. My best guess then is differences in how Tor handles v2 vs v3 onions. I can't test OnionCat with v3 onions, so I'll do tinc with v2 onions, and see how it works. > > But it's still voluntary, right?
But it's still voluntary, right? So one can random walk until non-blocking
Yes. Some relay operators may be staying on those older versions for that reason.
