 Authorities log these messages even though they assume they are reachable:
 {{{
 May 10 01:31:46.000 [warn] Your server (52.27.2.173:8299) has not managed
 to confirm that its ORPort is reachable. Relays do not publish descriptors
 until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check your firewalls,
 ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc.
 May 10 01:31:46.000 [warn] Your server (52.27.2.173:34237) has not managed
 to confirm that its DirPort is reachable. Relays do not publish
 descriptors until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check
 your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc.
 }}}

 We should skip these messages for authorities, and any tors that are going
 to publish their descriptors anyway.
