Comment:

 Hi,

 You need to run your tor as `root` user to be able to bind to port 53.

 Furthermore, it seems something is already running on port 9040 and 9050
 which explains the:

 {{{
 Feb 18 05:57:19.783 [warn] Could not bind to 192.168.42.1:9040: Address
 already in use. Is Tor already running?
 }}}

 I think you should see if tor is already running, killing it and using
 root to be able to bind to 53.
