If you run crontab -e you can edit your list of cron jobs and add in something like @reboot /path/to/tor Mine looks like this: SHELL=/bin/bash @reboot ~/conforg/scripts/tor-run.sh The script that gets run is here: https://github.com/wdenton/conforguration/blob/master/conforg/scripts/tor-run.sh It sets up a tmux session with four windows: one running Tor, one tailing the log, one showing a bar chart of bandwidth use, and one a shell where I can run a report of bandwidth use. Combined, if the machine reboots then thirty seconds after it comes back Tor is running and I can run `tmux attach` to check in on it, then or weeks later.
