[tor-relays] New relay on dynamic IP address

[David Poulsen]

hi m,
did you use the docs about Part 3:

https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/guard/debianubuntu/updates/

3. Automatically reboot

If you want to automatically reboot add the following at the the end of the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:

    Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "true";

- or do i misunderstand something?

Regards
David
