Add new mirror
by Caleb Xu 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

Hello, I've started a Tor mirror at http://alebcay.tk:8080, and ask kindly that it be added to the official list of mirrors. It's running on nginx, so there's no equivalent to the "ServerAdmin youremail(a)example.com" found in Apache (as far as I know). Any workarounds to that particular problem (or is it okay that there's no contact info included on this mirror)? -- Caleb Xu Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. -Philippians 4:8

I want to announce a new Tor mirror at http(s)://tor.hoi-polloi.org - Bernd. P.S.: The https cert is signed by CAcert.org, so depending on your browser or operating system you are likely to get a warning/error when using https. >Y<

New Tor Mirror and Introduction
by Max Jakob Maass 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi everyone, I'm a CS Student and part-time polically interested activist from Germany, specializing in privacy and security. I am running a server together with a friend, and we are already running a Tor Relay [0] that has been active for almost two years with minimal interruptions (for example, when our providers network infrastructure went offline about a month ago. sigh). Seeing the situation in turkey, I finally decided to also mirror the tor website. So, feel free to add the following to your list: HTTP dist/: http://mirror.velcommuta.de/tor/dist/ HTTP website: http://mirror.velcommuta.de/tor/ HTTPS dist/: https://mirror.velcommuta.de/tor/dist/ HTTPS website: https://mirror.velcommuta.de/tor/ The SSL CA is StartCom / StartSSL. Certificate Fingerprints: SHA1: E1:29:6D:B5:0F:C8:8E:BA:57:41:DA:0B:FA:71:C2:E7:88:68:28:9E SHA256: 63:29:C9:E5:AA:AB:74:78:D4:FB:87:5E:40:C1:25:5A:3D:62:7B:C7: 12:89:45:B6:E4:D8:F9:C6:97:AB:C8:F3 SHA512: A5:1B:AB:E8:B3:37:78:97:1A:77:07:D5:E8:32:C6:8A:CD:88:25:66: 96:8D:AC:4B:D4:49:30:B4:D1:4F:77:6C:AF:C0:5E:76:02:BC:F5:D5: 99:70:B8:E5:2F:3C:0D:EB:9D:AB:29:0D:FF:59:97:59:A4:DE:3F:04: 7A:C1:EA:8E (in case anyone wants to check, the up-to-date cert fingerprints can always be found at [1], signed by my PGP key [2]) The mirror is reachable using IPv4 and IPv6. Two questions: 1. Is it desirable to force SSL connections using a .htaccess file, or should I avoid that, as some countries will terminate / track SSL connections? 2. Would it make sense to also make the mirror available as a hidden service, so people already using Tor can get new versions by downloading them from a hidden service? As that would entail almost zero extra work, I would be perfectly willing to add the few lines to my torrc to make that possible. Sincerely, Max Maass P.S.: If I have missed any pitfalls when configuring the mirror, please let me know.

To whom it may concern: The mirror at 199.175.55.215 was previously HTTP only. It now supports HTTPS (self-signed certificate) with Perfect Forward Secrecy. FYI.

ADD mirror tor.eff.org
by mark burdett 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

as Peter mentioned last week, https://tor.eff.org is back. It's an HTTPS mirror on IPv4 and IPv6. We are planning to keep it online for the time being (and can send another update here if for some reason we don't keep it up) Thanks! --mark B.
