Hello,

I changed my firewall to allow ipv6 and can access the ports i forgot to 
allow them through my 10GB pfsense router. What are we talking about the 
DirPort and why does your torrc use ipv6 on the DirPort from what i know 
IPv6 is not used on the directory. Also is there any reason you have the 
OutboundBindAddress? Does your system have 2 IPv4 addresses? You general 
torrc seems to be over complicating things. Is there a reason to also 
specify the Address and then the same address in the DirPort/ORPort? 
Either way im not sure what your going on about the NoAdvertise flag as 
it is not at all what i need.

Thanks,
John Csuti
