ORPort listening on one IP, but advertising on another

Closed (moved) Issue created 9 years ago by Trac

When I tell Tor to listen on one IP it (according to the log) still advertises itself on a different IP.

I am running the following configuration. The only change are the x's on IPs. Nothing else was removed or changed. See how the IP ends with .81.

SocksPort 0
ORPort x.x.x.81:33075
BridgeRelay 1
Exitpolicy reject *:*
User _tor

Nickname xxx
ContactInfo xxx

# Logging
Log notice file /var/log/tor.log

# Enable the Extended ORPort
ExtORPort auto
ServerTransportPlugin obfs3 exec xxx/bin/obfs4proxy
ServerTransportPlugin obfs4 exec xxx/bin/obfs4proxy

ServerTransportListenAddr obfs3 x.x.x.81:33074
ServerTransportListenAddr obfs4 x.x.x.81:443

When starting Tor (nothing but status lines that have been replaced with ... removed) it correctly outputs the listening ip, but still advertises on another ip (.81 vs .172).

ifconfig output. See how the interface has two IP addresses. Tor appears to be looking at the first one for advertisement, despite ORPort being set to the second one.

sockstat (similar to netstat) output:

Command Line:

Also Tor isn't running in a jail and there is nothing else I can think of affecting it.
