-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello,
This isn't new, and it happens with any DNS resolver (ISP resolver, Google or OpenDNS, custom DNS resolver on localhost running unbound or bind, etc.). I have experienced it on all the exits I ever run, it's the most common warning. There's a ticket for it opened by me: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/11600 When I opened the ticket, we thought it may be a libevent issue; that makes the nameserver look down while it is not, but see comment 6 in the linked ticket - that might be a cause also. In the mean time until we resolve this just keep the exit running with a localhost unbound or bind resolver and don't use Google or OpenDNS resolvers. It's best that an exit relay runs its own resolver. On 2/1/2016 5:46 AM, Tristan wrote: > After sending tor a HUP, I now have errors from OpenDNS and Google > DNS servers.
