Hello,
I'm running a tor relay (non-exit) on DSL connection. My ISP reconnects me every 24 hours and gives me a new ip. How must tor be configured to publish it's new ip address after reconnect? Can tor daemon (linux) do this automatically or do I have to run a cron job and restart service cron at specific times?

Hi, thanks for running a relay. Tor checks its IP often, and will publish the new one when it detects a change. If you have logging set to at least 'notice' level there will be 'Our IP Address has changed' entries in the log. GD

Thank you, good to know. There must have been some other problem on the first day. Now it seems running fine. I now installed a second relay at my second home on an Asus RT-N66U with Tomato Shibby firmware. It's now online for 2 days and it seems to run even better than the first one on my old Mac mini G3 running Debian Wheezy.
Running TOR on a router is really nice. It does not consume extra power and it is always on.
