Lost guard flag, IPv6 problem?
by Sebastian Niehaus 26 Feb '17

26 Feb '17

Hi, my relay lost its guard flag and I don't know what might be the reason. The flag was lost before the last reboot (due to kernel upgrade) https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/7A32C9519D80CA458FC8B034A28F5F6815649… Any ideas on that? What bothers me too is: there is no IPv6 "Dir Address" although I did not change configuration. Some days ago, I hat IPv6 connectivity issues but they are resolved. Any hints on this? I am not sure if those problems are related to each other ... Thanks, Sebastian

All, I have 30 nodes now and my year end I intend to run enough to reach 6% of exit probability. I want to know if there is a logical limit per family. Thanks! John

Provider Suggestion, Scaleway
by Volker Mink 24 Feb '17

24 Feb '17

Hey there J I just want to name a good provider for TOR Relays and Exits. I am running a small VPS on Scaleway.com , which costs me about 3€ a month. Unlimited traffic! Scaleway is running ARM-systems, so ArchLinux is recommended. Check my Exit on Atlas: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/2D31C2099EB65577F5106154DDCAA6C3EAD6B… best, volker

New Relay Operator: Hostname
by colin＠awakening.io 24 Feb '17

24 Feb '17

Hello! I have just started up a new exit node using nusenu's wonderful Ansible scripts (thank you kindly). I would like the hostname to be public, I wonder if I have misconfigured as the hostname does not display here: https://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=b0a8f23372309d3589e70bd… I have the following in my configuration: ORPort 198.100.159.72:9000 DirPort 198.100.159.72:9001 Address tor-exit-01.awakening.io Any thoughts? - Colin

large server farms
by contact＠charlieluna.com 21 Feb '17

21 Feb '17

I'm highly interested in us creating a large server farm for Tor services. The only question is how to get the coaxial cable ran from the server facility to each subscriber. The power requirements could be handled by solar and wind systems and any water needs can be created by means of water collection systems and solar heat collectors for hot water. I think it's totally feasible. What do you guys think? Also, I'm very hardcore about taking back the internet for the people. No more of this for-profit stuff where we get throttled and our freedom of speech is abridged. Internet for the people is a means of freedom of speech. Let's take it back.

Bandwidth Measurement
by Marcobr 20 Feb '17

20 Feb '17

Hey everyone, as far as I know, the DAs running the bwauth scripts conduct hourly bandwidth measurements. Depending on the advertised bandwidth of the relay node, a smaller/bigger file gets transmitted on a custom 2-hop-circuit and the transmission time determines the actual bandwidth. Now, here is my problem: Assuming that my relay node advertised 50MB/s, and is currently at 98% load (49 MB/s). To conduct the measurement, the bwauth script will send a 8MB file over my relay, but since it can only serve another 1MB/s, how will the bwauth script determine that my advertised 50MB/s is correct?
