peculiar 0.2.0.9-alpha behavior this a.m.



     [WARNING:  I've included a *lot* of log entries in this note, interspersed
with my observations and comments, so it is quite long and finding my remarks
will require careful scanning.]
     Among the various windows I keep open in X, I usually have one open for
/var/log/messages and another for /var/log/tor/notices.log (using "tail -f"
to display them).  Early this a.m. I was startled to see suddenly appear the
following after /var/log/tor/notices.log had been silent for about twelve
hours:

Oct 31 02:51:21.091 [notice] Our directory information is no longer up-to-date enough to build circuits.

     At this point, the two operations that had been trying to make connections
via the client side of tor failed.  I tried to trigger fetching a new directory
by sending a SIGHUP:

     tor often gives up a little too soon, so I tried again:

     I think it was at this point that I commented out "TunnelDirCons 1" to
see if that would help.  It didn't.

     At this point, I left a while(1) loop running, attempting to tor-resolve
a name to an address once every six minutes, and I went to sleep.

     I have a customer-unfriendly ISP that insists on forcing a PPPoE logout
at least once every 24 hours, so the next few lines reflect the fact that a
new IP address was assigned to the router when it immediately logged back in.

     And all has been well since the restart.
     I am mystified as to what went wrong that tor found itself unable to build
circuits, even though I could see that it was adding new data to
cached-descriptors.new quite frequently.  Did anything strange happen to the
directory authorities early this a.m. that might have induced this behavior?
