This was a dig at the list.
When questions are asked to get help they are told to stop wasting
list attention and to be relevant or go elsewhere, but look at the
energy on the list today.

Jacob has contributed to Tor and that is where my interest stops. The
rest is for the people involved to deal with elsewhere.
[Sorry to hear what Nick Farr has said.}

However...not wanting to miss an chance to learn

I tried unattended-upgrades but apt-get update and upgrade still had
to be used.  What is the trick to getting it to automate upgrades?

I've read a bit but still don't know how to set-up iptables.
Is there a tutorial for setting it up on a system just running Tor?

Everywhere I looked presumes knowledge I don't yet have.
I imagine I am not the only one.

The debian wiki gives some good information on setting up unattended-upgrades (https://wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades). DigitalOcean released a tutorial for Ubuntu 12.04 but the same concepts can be applied since Ubuntu is based on Debian (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-firewall-using-iptables-on-ubuntu-12-04). I hope this helps.
