Hello
I’m creating a private obfs4 bridge for my friends. I’m creating it on the Debian 12 server.
I care about its availability.
1 I decided to make automatic updates using this command:
apt-get install unattended-upgrades apt-listchanges
2 Later I set up the TOR project package repository for Debian 12
3 Then I put the following lines in the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades file:
Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
“origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security”;
“origin=TorProject”;
};
Unattended-Upgrade::Package-Blacklist {
};
4 Later, I updated the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades file with the following:
APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists “1”;
APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval “5”;
APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade “1”;
APT::Periodic::Verbose “1”;
And here the questions arise:
Is it necessary to restart your computer automatically?
Does this automatic restart affect the update deployment?
If I don’t enable automatic restart after update, should I manually restart my computer (to implement updates)?
The instructions on page Tor Project | Debian and Ubuntu indicate:
If you want to automatically reboot add the following at the the end of the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:
Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot “true”;
I’m afraid that such an automatic restart will affect the availability of my bridge (it will turn off for my users).
Please help and understand (I don’t write well in English).
