If you want, I can look into this but I will need some more information: * how do you install tor from what source (dnf install tor?) * what version do you use * your torrc configuration file * how do you start tor * how does it fail if you do not modify the service file (you did include the logs in your first email) If it fails, this might be a bug in fedora's service file, in which case we should report it in fedora's bugzilla. > How does the tor/tor-master service thing work? > It is not clear from the service file. tor-master.service is just there to ensure that all tor instances are reloaded/restarted when needed (for example when logrotate happens or when the tor package is upgraded), see /etc/logrotate.d/tor and the first few lines in tor.service and tor@.service. ..but you probably will not need anything from tor-master.service directly. Just use tor.service or in a mutli-instance case: tor@.service -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_
