Setting up new Tor relay
by Lance Hathaway 25 Nov '12

25 Nov '12

Hi all, I'm trying to set up a Tor bridge relay as an NT service under Windows 2003 x64. It runs, but only when I -don't- pass it a torrc file. Specifically, I've tried the following: 1. Installed service using "tor --service install". This installed the Tor service, with files located in "C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\tor". I copied a torrc file into this directory and edited it to correctly set the ports and other options to be a bridge relay. After placing this file into the … [View More]

Akamai running Tor exit relays
by tagnaq 24 Nov '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, I found out about it via Moritz's twitter feed [1] and I think it is great. Am quite curious about it. Does anyone have some insights on why Akamai decided to start 10 fast exit relays? (CC'ing the relays contact address here) Some compass stats [2]: bandwith: 2.75% of the Tor network exit probability: 6.97% [1] https://twitter.com/torservers/status/266669861139255296 [2] https://compass.torproject.org/?family=… [View More]

traffic pattern indicates MITM?
by ea 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

For four days the BW graph and usage table of my bridge indicated noticeable traffic and then the graph dropped precipitously to near zero & the table shows no recent usage. Vidalia/tor are working fine. I did try rebooting my router-modem gateway last night, but as far as I could monitor it, the traffic has still been near zero (maybe a few KB every hour or so). If I'm reading it correctly, onionoo is showing that the bridge is still published. I'm not complaining about this pattern, but … [View More]

Tor marked as "enforced" process in Apparmor, but also "unconfined"
by Christian 14 Nov '12

14 Nov '12

Dear fellows, I use Ubuntu Precise 12.04 and as I run a Bridge, I find the idea of confining Tor with an Apparmor profile charming. When upgrading Ubuntu and Tor, the Apparmor stuff seemed to be automatically worked out, so I deleted my old handmade usr.sbin.tor profile as I found the new system_tor profile. Wenn I type "sudo aa-status", I get system_tor as "enforced process" with its correct process id and there's no process "unconfined, but with a profile defined". But when I type "sudo … [View More]

Status of NumCPUs >2 in 0.2.3.x?
by Steve Snyder 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

In the Tor v0.2.2.x series it was said that it was pointless to set NumCPUs to a value greater than 2. Due to poor scaling, I guess. Is that still the case with v0.2.3.24+ ? Would NumCPUs value of 4 or 8 (on systems with that many CPU cores) actually provide any benefit over a value of 2? Thanks.
