    Summary

    If ORPort is set to listen on a specific adapter, incoming connections are not reported through the control port.

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Specify a specific bind address with the format ORPort [address]:[port]
    2. Use nyx to verify there are no reported incoming connections
    3. Use python relay connection count script to verify there are no reported incoming connections

    What is the current bug behavior?

    Specifying an ORPort bind address prevents reporting of incoming connection counts and details

    What is the expected behavior?

    Reporting tools connecting to tor control port should receive correct incoming connection counts and details
