Comment(by bganton):

 ''SuSE 11.4 64bit has several ops like logrotate which send SIGHUPs to
 most/all running processes.  Tor always dies at 5:00 am.

 /usr/bin/torctl reload will also appear to work and leave tor dead.

 Hope this added info helps a little.

 (first use of wiki or trac ever.  If I am out of line let me know''
