Hello,  
Thank you again for your reply.  
Why configure a Tor server is hard? I want to configure a Tor router that clients connect to it and use Tor.  
How about the following lines?

```auto
SocksPort 192.168.1.100:9050
SocksPolicy accept 192.168.1.0/24
RunAsDaemon 1
DataDirectory /var/lib/tor
ControlPort 9051
CookieAuthentication 1

```
