 The following is set in torrc:

 {{{
 AccountingMax 2048 MB
 AccountingStart day 00:00
 OrListenAddress 0.0.0.0:9001
 ORPort 443
 }}}

 When Tor starts, the following message is printed:

 {{{
 Nov 06 20:25:27.825 [warn] You have set AccountingMax to use hibernation.
 You have also chosen a low DirPort or OrPort. This combination can make
 Tor stop working when it tries to re-attach the port after a period of
 hibernation. Please choose a different port or turn off hibernation unless
 you know this combination will work on your platform.
 }}}

 In the case an OrListenAddress directive specifies a port > 1023, this
 message should not be displayed.
