[tor-relays] ORPort bug is an impediment to running on my servers

All: It turns out that this issue was related to PortForwarding to the Private Gateway Address (192.168.0.1:9001). The solution was to include an iptables ACCEPT Rule in the INPUT Chain to the PortForward destination (the Private Gateway Address - 192.168.0.1:9001). # iptables -I INPUT

I'm not sure how TOR gets its addresses but sometimes you need to specify it directly, especially for bridges for some reason. Just use your whole IP ORPort 123.456.789.123:80 Dont forget if you are mapping Obfs4 you need to add the permissions so obfs can go to a port that low /Don't
