I have been experimenting with the thought of running two Tor clients at once on my machine. So I decided to try it and modified the source a bit to let me run two clients at once (of course with separate data dirs). But they both get the same exit node, and if I try to switch exit node on one of them via its control port, they both get switched.

I have been experimenting with this some more, and Tor always seem to get the same IP, even if I run several separate clients (on the same machine) at once.

Is this the expected behavior?

Once you say "modified the source a bit" I have no idea what to expect. Have you tried just setting different countries as the exit nodes? – soandos Oct 27 '12 at 23:38
