- <li> - If your computer isn't running a webserver, please consider - changing your ORPort to 443 and your DirPort to 80. Many Tor - users are stuck behind firewalls that only let them browse the - web, and this change will let them reach your Tor relay. Win32 - relays can simply change their ORPort and DirPort directly - in their torrc and restart Tor.
