Yes, it sends a reload signal: https://gitweb.torproject.org/nyx.git/tree/nyx/__init__.py#n230 You can also reload tor's config using systemd or "kill -HUP". > Last, if I’m running a bridge at home do I need to configure iptables / > fail2ban or is my firewall sufficient?

[tor-relays] Some newbie questions
Hello all, I have a few newbie questions on some topics that I would like to clear up... What is the proper way to stop/start/restart a relay? I’ve ‘corrupted’ a few relays during this process, for example a relay had a new fingerprint after restarting the machine. Actually my biggest problems thus far are all based around Tor behaving weird after a restart. Also, after I make changes to the torrc file, is pressing ‘x’ in Nyx an acceptable way to enable the changes or is there a preferred method? Last, if I’m running a bridge at home do I need to configure iptables / fail2ban or is my firewall sufficient? And specifically which ports need to be forwarded to my bridge? Just the ORPort or others as well? Thanks! Sent from ProtonMail Mobile___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
