Re: BIND down, weird IPs pop up on tor.log
Thanks downie! Briefly, I've found out that I have the weird IPs in the tor log each time BIND has some temporary failure. This started happening when I moved BIND to another pc in my LAN. It never happened when BIND was running on the same pc as Tor. downie -, on 03/23/2010 06:20 PM, wrote: I assume you have a fixed IP and an Address line in your torrc? I have this line: Address something.dyndns.org When my IP really changes, I can see correct entries in the log. The problem doesn't seem correlated to my real IP changes. Would restarting BIND make Tor try to guess its IP? In that case you could have triggered the bug in 0.2.1.23/24 which gave some of us with dynamic IPs severe problems - the IP guessed was random contents of memory changing every few seconds. It's fixed in 0.2.1.25 I'm still running 0.2.1.24. Have I missed it, or there's been no announcement going around for .25?

BIND down, weird IPs pop up on tor.log
Hi, something really weird has happened to my tor node. I was restarting BIND, wich serves as dns in my LAN, on another machine. Around the same time I found these two lines in /var/log/tor/tor.log: Mar 22 10:29:18.806 [notice] Your IP address seems to have changed to 182.219.88.104. Updating. Mar 22 10:29:18.832 [notice] Your IP address seems to have changed to 182.219.55.216. Updating. I wonder where these IPs came from, and how this could be related to BIND being down at the very moment. $whois says that those are IPs from Down Under, but I'm almost exactly at the other side of the world. Moreover, I can't see any line later on saying that I went back to my real IP. Everything seems to be working normally. Thanks a lot. -- http://www.predicatori.it/marco/ *** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talkin the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
