Your tor daemon picks these .onion <-> IP address associations at random. They're only valid for your local tor daemon instance, and only until it is restarted. The IPv4 address range is controlled by the VirtualAddrNetworkIPv4 option: https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en#VirtualAddrNetworkIPv4 It can be used for transparent torification: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TransparentProxy Rusty
