I am not familiar how to do this on linux and have no machine to try here, can please someone help out?
You need the following:
#!/bin/sh
torpid= 'catch the PID'
newip='See_above'
#something like the following should do then: (please someone "translate to a linux")
sed -i '' 's/^\(Address\) .*/\1 '$newip'/' /path/to/your/torrc
/path/to/kill -s HUP $torpid
----
to be put in a script and initiated by e.g. ip-up.local does the trick for me.
Maybe this is a complete waste of time, if Tor is able to determine the new IP alone faster.
IN this case a simple:
/path/to/kill -s HUP $torpid
should be fine.
What may be faster or more efficient, to HUP tor with a new IP, or to let the Authorities find out themselves
about a renewed IP, I do not know. Anyone?
