My Tor relay is working as an Exit, but it is configured with ExitPolicy reject *:*.

My Tor relay is working as an Exit, but it is configured with ExitPolicy reject *:*.

EDIT:

Hey I wanted to close that issue. The main problem was that I confused the EXIT of the internal circuit with the EXIT of the Tor network. 2 tickets exist to clarify that UX problem in ARM. 6430 and 12956.

I think for non-general-purpose circuits, we should call that third hop something else. I'm open to suggestions -- one option would be to just call the last hop on a non-exit circuit "Middle" also. Another option would be to call it "Internal".

In conclusion, what I have seen is that TOR made internal circuits and called me the EXIT of them. That is not really a problem because I am not an EXIT of the Tor network itself.

Edit2: Following the notices.log. I can`t see anything suspicious..
