shutting down a relay with less interruption for maintenance
by Marco Moock 13 Oct '25

13 Oct '25

Hello! I would like to ask what the preferred way is to shut down a relay gracefully in case of maintenance downtime to avoid interrupted connections. The shutdown process might take a while. -- Gruß Marco Send unsolicited bulk mail to 1760260473muell(a)stinkedores.dorfdsl.de

Relay not ramping up as expected
by tor＠busybear.se 12 Oct '25

Hello. My exit 7BE9E2EF2BB41BB662D9A3CD68289B9E3DBF8A08 WYSWYG has kinda frozen at the current status, although formerly being both guard, stable and advertising towards 60 MB output on a 1Gb fibre. My provider, Bahnhof, has no problem with Tor, even though my exit been investigated by the police as involved in the biggest leak in Sweden without consequences for me. Uptime should be enough by now for at least a stable flag. Speedtest on my IP says upwards 950 Mb up\down. My torrc is simple: ORPort 65532 DirPort 65533 #ClientPreferIPv6ORPort Nickname WYSWYG Contactinfo <tor AT busybear DOT se> ExitRelay 1 Log notice file /home/*/torlog SafeLogging 1 ProtocolWarnings 1 RunAsDaemon 1 ControlPort 9051 CookieAuthentication 1 CookieAuthFileGroupReadable 1 CookieAuthFile /home/*/control_auth_cookie #GeoIPFile /home/*/TorBrowser/Data/Tor/geoip IPv6Exit 0 ConnDirectionStatistics 1 ExtraInfoStatistics 1 Any suggestions?

My Tor Relay Is Slower Than Expected (Already Did Basic Debugging)
by eviljoel 09 Oct '25

09 Oct '25

Greetings, I'm running the "chinstrap" Tor relay and am seeing high variability on the bandwidth graph here: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/F01C3861418540248EAEC724038C… I've run Tor relay's before and don't remember seeing this much variability. I've setup my relay as a bridge and can consistently pull 300k from the relay but the bandwidth graph is showing far less than that on average. I was hoping someone could take a look and tell me if anything looks wrong. Also, if there is a problem, what I can do to fix it? The relay is configured for 414.25 KBytes per second with a burst rate of four times that amount. Thank you, eviljoel -- eviljoel's PGP fingerprint: A2BE 2D12 24D1 67CA 8830 DDE7 DFB3 676B 196D 6430

Running a Snowflake bridge on Debain
by Keifer Bly 05 Oct '25

05 Oct '25

Hi, So I am running a snowflake bridge, and here is the output after it running for a few days. Wondering, on my system, as there is no torrc configuration, is there a port that needs to be forwarded? How can I check if the bridge is reachable? Is the app from here: https://snowflake.torproject.org/ Thanks all. --Keifer

bridge relay marked as down but I can manually connect to it
by Eritque arcus 05 Oct '25

05 Oct '25

Hi, I don't know why but my bridge relay marked as down but I can connect to it with my Tor browser. Nyx can successfully detected my traffic and two others join after my traffic(but in other time it's just ~700B/s w/o connection). And every-time I restart the tor service, it will up for some hours. There is no error or warning in log. More context: I setup my first relay on yesterday(>18hrs ago) on Ubuntu 24, Tor 0.4.8.18 following the guide; It's on KVM/QEMU VPS with some of my other services. the status is right here: <https://bridges.torproject.org/status?id=A69AD85C2E175BD0F753E1CCBE5D4BA371…> and <https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/A69AD85C2E175BD0F753E1CCBE5D…>. Do I need to allow some extra ports? right now I only accept the ORPort and block any others. Or it may relatives with my VPS ISP? -- Best, Eritque Arcus
