If you want to get a bit more info, set SafeLogging 0 in your torrc. Then you'll learn what it's connecting to. My guess is that it's doing a reachability test on its own DirPort. But I really don't know. Once SafeLogging is off, be more careful with your logs (e.g., if it looks like an actual user connection, don't post it). And be sure to turn it back on again when you're done debugging. --Roger
