Indiegogo campaign: 3771 Euro for Exits and Bridges!
by Moritz Bartl 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

Hi! The torservers.net Indiegogo campaign has ended today, and yields 3771.84 Euro to be spread equally across our current seven organizations. Each organization can hand in receipts and get reimbursed, or, alternatively, we can transfer their share up front. I will mail out stickers and posters today and tomorrow to everyone who donated. Within the week, I'll put up the donation website that lists everyone who donated and wanted to be publicly mentioned. Thank you!

Re: [tor-relays] Store key files in RAM

Thanks for the instructions. So what if I set up an L2TP VPN connection from my server to my computer at home which stores the keys and I download the file directly into the RAM folder? The purpose is to avoid storing the file or let the file passing through the local normal storage system on my vserver which could be extremely insecure in this situation. So will any of these techniques you have described or I stated above let my data passing through the local ROM storage system of the vserver? > Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2013 00:14:36 -0400 > From: tor(a)t-3.net > To: <tor-relays(a)lists.torproject.org> > Subject: Re: [tor-relays] Store key files in RAM > Message-ID: <521c27ac.570.f998d700.49849df(a)t-3.net> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; Format="flowed" > > IMO cut and paste in the situation you're describing is not the > perfect way.

IMO cut and paste in the situation you're describing is not the perfect way. Better way would be: Have a secure linux machine running an sshd at your home (or another physically-controlled location?). Close off iptables and ip6tables for inbound sshd except for your vserver's IP (hint: "ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_4096_key -b 4096" (don't put a password when it asks)) and edit sshd_config to point it to the new key. Also in the config, force your local sshd server to insist upon only using these 2 ciphers ("Ciphers aes256-ctr,aes256-cbc"). Restart the local sshd (maybe "service sshd restart") and verify that you can NOT connect from the vserver to the home box using a different cipher (ssh -l someuser -c aes128-ctr your.home.ip.here). A test ssh connection without the "-c aes128-ctr" should work, the one with it should fail. You would do transfers of important files to and from the vserver via an 'sftp' session which you start from your vserver, and you are connecting into your home machine (sftp someuser(a)your.home.ip.here) Don't make the connection in the reverse direction, you can push and pull files with the one. And don't let anyone steal your ssh_host_rsa_4096_key off the home box. (could even shred/delete/regenerate it now and then). In general, turn off the home sshd when you aren't using it. The above setup should be pretty good in terms of the network transfer if the data hasn't already been compromised, of course. The certainty that it hasn't been is not necessarily guaranteed if it's already been thrown through a network card in a less-solid way, such as the contents having been viewed via 'cat', 'nano', etc. via a connection in the 'wrong' direction. If you are deleting files from your vserver's hard drive after copying them out for backup, try doing "shred" on the file first, and then "rm". It may help do the deletion better, depending upon how your vserver hosting is set up.

Store key files in RAM
by Tony Xue 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

Hi, I have been discovering simple and secure way of protecting the Tor key files recently, in order to achieve the safety of the keys on VPS. So I created a folder on Linux called /tor and it is stored in the RAM file system. I put my key file into that folder and link it back to the data directory folder of Tor. I also backed up the key files in case my server need to be restarted and the RAM would be cleaned up. I left the key in RAM for some undesired failures, errors or configuration which need to restart the Tor software. If the server gets down, I would probably do the simple cut and paste in the SSH client to restore my key files. Or in a higher level way if cut&paste is not safe enough. I am not sure whether this is a good way to protect my key files on a VPS. Does anyone have any comment on that or a better way? Tony

What if my favorite online store website blacklists all Tor Relay IP addresses?
by David Carlson 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

It seems that at least two 'normal' online store websites that I visit from time to time have apparently decided to block my IP address which I am also using for a non-exit Tor relay. I have had extended discussions with one of them and they considered unblocking my IP address to be a risk greater than the lost income (US $160/year revenue) was worth. They suggested switching to a different IP address, which was like pulling hens' teeth from my ISP. To do that, I had to have a technician visit my house and install a new modem because they do not have a person who understands tech talk available for ordinary users, and I couldn't get sufficiently elevated in their support hierarchy. The supposedly dynamic IP address that I get from them hardly ever changes, probably because I am buying U-verse television service from them. Now, after a couple of months, the "new" IP address is also blocked. My question is this. What if it becomes common practice for commercial entities such as online stores to block all IP addresses that they find on lists of Tor relays such as <https://www.dan.me.uk/tornodes> or the official Tor metrics data? That list is updated every half hour, includes all nodes, and is not limited to exit nodes. It currently lists 4438 nodes. That is a manageable size for a blacklist, but it could represent tens or hundreds of thousands of clients. Wouldn't this eventually either cripple the Tor network or generally discourage Tor clients that can no longer buy products online from store XYZ through the Tor network? David C

help with relay and bridges
by That Guy 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

Hello all, been feeling helpless and have decided to at the least get a few relay's and bridges up and running and hopefuly learn enough in the process to help/teach others to do the same. Although for many it is a simple task, for many many more who would like to help it is no easy task and there is lots of uncertanty and questions if one does managage to get a relay up when they are not sure what they are doing. I understand these are elementary issues and that is why as a non-programmer of Security expert I would like to help where and when I can and with a little help from some or even one of you I hope that I can help others while taking some strain off the real minds. Many others like me exist and want to help. I am asking for someone to help me help others.

Increase of number of new relays and exit nodes
by Jon 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

I am wondering with the increase of number of new relays and exit nodes how this might be affecting the other ( non- new ) relays and exits? I have noticed over the past several months that the amount my exit relay was being used has drastically dropped as the new relays and new exits have come online. Is this normal to see my usage drop noticeably? Is this going to be a continuing trend as new relays and exits join with what we already have, that some relays / exits will see a lower usage from their nodes? Jon

Config Tor Exit Node
by var 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Hi guys, we moved from a Win to Linux with our tor exit node. The win was running fine no problems since we are running the the exit node on a Debian wheezy we got in trouble. The exit node is installed and configured with the how to on the official Tor website. The exit node is directly plugged in to the gateway. Its an DIR-655 <http://support.dlink.com.tw/> which just have to run our internet traffic + the tor exit node. Here is the torrc file: > http://pastebin.com/QsZ3UJPA Problem is that when the node is running i lose my internet on every other PC around. Connection is still there but it take years to resolve the names....so i figured it must be an DNS problem. I hope you can help us. Thanks in advance VarVarna
