Multiple onion addresses pointing to single IP

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am attempting to point multiple .onion addresses to a single Whonix gateway - however when I edit my torrc file like so

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/host1
HiddenServiceVersion 3
HiddenServicePort 80 10.152.152.12:80
HiddenServicePort 22 10.152.152.12:22

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/host2
HiddenServiceVersion 3
HiddenServicePort 80 10.152.152.12:81

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/host3
HiddenServiceVersion 3
HiddenServicePort 80 10.152.152.12:82

HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/host4
HiddenServiceVersion 3
HiddenServicePort 80 10.152.152.12:83

I get the error:

01:55:46 [ARM_NOTICE] Unneeded torrc entries found. They’ve been highlighted in blue on the torrc page.

  • entries ignored due to having duplicates: HiddenServiceDir (line 15), HiddenServiceDir (line 20), HiddenServiceDir (line 24), HiddenServicePort (line 17), HiddenServicePort (line 18), HiddenService-
    Port (line 22), HiddenServicePort (line 26), HiddenServiceVersion (line 16), HiddenServiceVersion (line 21), HiddenServiceVersion (line 25)

Could anyone explain if what I am doing is not beneficial or how to fix the config above?

Could be sorted out as per
Free Support for Whonix ™.

Are you suggesting that the answer is present in the docs and I need to look or that an answer can be discovered via code changes?

Thanks in advance.

No. But your question is most likely unspecific to Whonix. The same would most likely happen on Debian with Tor. Therefore I suggest point 4 to 7 from Free Support for Whonix.
