this "should" be a "hidden" file in your home folder
turn on "show hidden files" in whatever operating system and desktop this is

".torrc "

what instructions are you fallowing ?

the official instructions
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en

-- the Debian relay instructions
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-...debian.html.en
the install instructions point to

/etc/tor/torrc

but why not use the software repos for installing it on fedora 18
https://www.torproject.org/download/...d-unix.html.en

tor is in the base fedora 18 repo

Code:

su -
yum search tor
---- then from the list ---
yum install tor
