Thanks Mike, now the server is working (except that it doesn't run on
orport 443)! :)

Okay, I tried that, sadly it didn't work.
I'm behind a NAT router and I run Ubuntu in VMWare.
So that's what I did: I forwarded port 443 to port 9090 in my NAT
router and in the torrc file I had orbindadress 0.0.0.0.:9090 active.
However, it always said my orport is not reachable (after about 20
min). So until I find the cause (if ever) I'll let it run at a higher
port.

Sincerely,
Landorin
