 Priority:  normal     |      Milestone:               
Component:  Tor Relay  |        Version:  Tor: 0.2.2.32

 The log reads:
 "Now checking whether ORPort A.B.172.47:9001 and DirPort A.B.172.47:9030
 are reachable..."

 But the torrc has:
 ORListenAddress A.B.172.50
 DirListenAddress A.B.172.50

 After tor start it really does listen to A.B.172.50 and not to the ip from
 the log.

 The probable cause for this is the use of a physical eth0 with ip
 A.B.172.47 and an alias eth0:1 with A.B.172.50.

 Running on Gentoo.
