 Do you want to run a tor server?
 
-  We're looking for people with reasonably reliable Internet connections,
-  that have at least 1Mbit each way. Currently we don't use all of that,
-  but we want it available for burst traffic.
-
-  (The Tor server doesn't need to be run as root, and doesn't need any
-  special system permissions or kernel mods. You should probably run it
-  as its own user though, especially if you run an identd service too.)
-
-  First, copy torrc.sample to torrc (by default it's in
-  /usr/local/etc/tor/), and edit the middle part. Create the
-  DataDirectory, and make sure it's owned by the uid/gid that will be
-  running tor. Fix your system clock so it's not too far off. Make sure
-  name resolution works.
-
-  Then run tor to generate keys. One of the files generated
-  in your DataDirectory is your 'fingerprint' file. Mail it to
-  tor-ops@freehaven.net.
-
-  Please also tell us in that mail who you are, so we know whom to contact
-  if there's any problem.  Also describe what kind of connectivity the new
-  server will have.  If possible PGP sign your mail.
-
-  You may find the initscript in contrib/tor.sh useful if you
-  want to set up Tor to start at boot.

 Do you want to run a hidden service?
 
-  Copy torrc.sample to torrc (by default it's in /usr/local/etc/tor/), and
-  edit the bottom part. Then run Tor. It will create each HiddenServiceDir
-  you have configured, and it will create a 'hostname' file which
-  specifies the url (xyz.onion) for that service. You can tell people
-  the url, and they can connect to it via their Tor client.
