Hi,
You are running a Tor relay, which is great:
http://rougmnvswfsmd4dq.onion/rs.html#search/9A0D54D3A6D2E0767596BF1515E616…
First: that Tor version is obsolete, and because of old bugs, we will
soon cut relays running those versions out of the network. Please
consider upgrading!
Second: let us know if there is any way to help you bump up the bandwidth
that you are allocating to the Tor relay. :)
But that Tor version is obsolete, and because of old bugs, we will soon
cut relays running those versions out of the network. Please consider
upgrading!
You can find Tor packages for many distros / operating systems here:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide#Platformspecifi…
Let us know if we can do anything to make the process easier.
And lastly, I am cc'ing the new network health mailing list (which
has public archives), to help us stay synced:

Thanks!

Great -- thanks for running relays!

Wow, Debian Jessie is from a long time ago. :)

I pointed this out to David Goulet, one of the other network health
folks, and he found
https://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/pool/main/t/tor/
which lists a deb for Tor 0.4.1.6 (uploaded a week and a bit ago).
Maybe there is some way to get that version, with your upgraded Raspbian?

Sure -- it might be that we bump out your relay sometime in the next week,
and then when you upgrade it can come back.
I also notice that your relay's bandwidth is tiny, so you might find
that the newer Tor versions have a higher minimum bandwidth for being
a useful relay.

Good find -- I just fixed it I think.
Thanks!
