I wrote a short "HowTo" on running multiple Tor processes on one host [1]. Feedback and improvements are greatly appreciated!

Sounds pretty straight-forward to me! A few things:
- Line 15: do you really need 5 IP addresses for 4 Tor processes? Also, the example addresses (.11 - .15) don't show up anywhere later, so maybe just write something like "use one IP address per Tor process".
- Line 32: you can use "https" in the URL here as well.
- Line 64: the "DirPortFrontPage" setting in torrc seems like an easier way to achieve this.
- Maybe add a link to this, might motivate people to turn on IPv6: https://people.torproject.org/~linus/ipv6-relay-howto.html
