[tor-relays] New relay has a problem - Additional info about net config

[Olaf Grimm]

Here info about netconfig. In the INFO messages is a part of 'Could not 
get local interface IP address."
A mystical thing.

root at localhost:~# ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
