Title: Torchat question
Post by: illuminat on May 02, 2013, 11:53 pm
my torchat isnt working, it just says message delayed and wont send messages.

also I notice that torchat runs its own tor program, is it okay to use this while running tor for browsing, if not how do I configure it to run through tor?

Hi illuminat,

I can't offer any solution to your first problem, but as far as running Torchat and also running the Tor Browser Bundle, that is absolutely fine.

Torchat is bundled with a Tor binary, so it is effectively running its own instance of Tor. It is therefore automatically routed through the Tor network.
