Oh, and I just checked, and Mike's original pull-req for the Tor blacklist didn't include the proxy disable code; what's in master !=3D the pull-req, so the OP may have been looking at the wrong code by accident. (I personally noticed this issue in the pull-req and didn't realise it hadn't been merged into master w/o modifications) https://github.com/mikehearn/bitcoinxt/commit/931a4d59a03c7e64d7d85ddfc07ae= 127533c7f28#diff-11780fa178b655146cb414161c635219R171 Kinda sloppy of Mike to be making changes in master that don't correspond to the peer-reviewed pull-req code... --=20 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org 00000000000000000402fe6fb9ad613c93e12bddfc6ec02a2bd92f002050594d --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGrBAEBCACVBQJV0+kVXhSAAAAAABUAQGJsb2NraGFzaEBiaXRjb2luLm9yZzAw MDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwNDAyZmU2ZmI5YWQ2MTNjOTNlMTJiZGRmYzZlYzAyYTJi ZDkyZjAwMjA1MDU5NGQvFIAAAAAAFQARcGthLWFkZHJlc3NAZ251cGcub3JncGV0 ZUBwZXRlcnRvZC5vcmcACgkQwIXyHOf0udwTLgf9EnxkLol89I5uK5VP59k8gITY 47oFlgGfbyenlvoBKPBHlzcTtpsEZDbvArIFHDtf/7/VvTPvjnrhW/LTq7Bk/TZ+ Bb1urV/kVoGzsXqltjlcCRV5d7t0v9XconCHZA7xk2m4xQscGbfgy7q4/rcWjwNJ BzeFv41xRSFG+f6rOa10Kw8+R/M+UBJgXguZV+FFdauE/7pfFL1+yqJ2iggFMffV +bEzqrAdYK307syFhHxRa7rgIG6qYnObcyd5PJcPwgptzq/DLq0u3L0NndTfFsF7 QnPpLNhjdZ7z4uv4A7lGJkrhh6rAJcdwXbBsYqDvluoxMdI0wVXA0m+d/u7W+A== =GiCr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --cWoXeonUoKmBZSoM--
