If you want this to run mostly hands-off, please install and properly configure the Debian package "unattended-upgrades". Make sure all the packages on the system are updated automatically, not only Tor! Verify that this actually happens. (One thing I learned in the past is that without the package "update-notifier-common", your system won't reboot automatically to activate new kernels.)
Locking yourself out of the system doesn't sound like a good idea. (Sometimes kernels are installed on a relatively small /boot partition, you will occasionally have to login and remove old kernels in that case.) Disable password logins and use a SSH key with a good passphrase on it.

I need some help. My dedicated server is running debian and is new, set up by my serverhoster.
I want to run a TOR-Relay:
- It should always update to latest stable automatically.
- It should be save.
I will edit the torrc by myself. What i need is simple copy+paste codeline for:
- isntall and run functional auto-update for tor (is it libevent?) just
simply @root user without user/pgp dealing stuff. pgp stuff is confusing me!
- deactivate complete access (ssh disable?) to ensure savety (i have to
reinstall the system by serverhoster-website if change needet) i want to lock out even myself.
Is this a practical idea to most easy set-up and let run without struggle? Please help, thanks.
