by dave` dave 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

im using VMware Ubuntu 16.04 using SSH. im running Exit-Relay and i want to control who can connect to my Exit-Relay, is there a way to do that- though the Exit-Relay settings, or the SSH settings? and there will be an even better way: if i can say who is the specific ip that can connect to me. Thank You!

by dave` dave 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Im working on project in Tor and im running Exit-Relay and Tor-Bridge together(on the same ip). for that im using VMware Ubuntu 16.04 with SSH. im using "arm" option tor run the Tor through terminal this is my "torrc" file through SSH: SocksPort 0 ORPort 443 BridgeRelay 1 Exitpolicy reject *:* PublishServerDescriptor 0 Nickname Test ExitRelay 1 ControlSocket 0 ContactInfo human(a)gmail.com now, im testing the Exit-Relay through "Windows" and sets in "torrc": Exitnodes ip(my servers ip) and is works. and now im testing my Tor-Bridge through Tor-Browser: my ip:port| my fingerprint and it works but when im running them both on my computer- changing the "torrc" file(in windows) and set in Tor-Browser to use my Bridge its not working. i need them to work together for this project. edit: after few hours the Tor-Brigade are still working buy when im trying to use the Exit-Relay its seams like every thing is ok but i can't get into to the Tor net.(in my browser i see my Exit-Relay ip but cant get into the internet)

Consensus Weight Definiton
by Keifer Bly 23 Apr '18

23 Apr '18

Hello, I am wondering, could you please explain exactly what “Consensus Weight” is? I had had a good uptime, about five days, then my darn computer that I run my relay off of froze for about 40 minutes this morning and I had no choice but to reboot the tor software, setting my current uptime back to 0 days. However, it has a consensus weight of 523, is this a good rating? Does this have an effect on things such as what flags a relay has (mine currently being Fast, V2Dir, Running, and Valid)? The relay in question can be found here: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/DB1AF6477BB276B6EA5E72132684… I know the stable flag (which I have had on and off since starting my relay, don’t currently have it but relay seems to receive traffic nonetheless) depends on uptime history, not exact current uptime, but am curious, is there an easy to check my current uptime history? Also, I thought I’d share an applescript I wrote to automatically update the tor relay software and homebrew one minute after midnight every day. Here is the source code (written using AppleScript editor) do shell script "$ which brew /usr/local/bin/brew update" do shell script "$ which brew /usr/local/bin/brew upgrade tor" end When it runs, it comes up with this error, saying tor is already up to date. sh: $: command not found Error: tor 0.3.2.10 already installed (1) As this is the only error that appears, I’d take it that the script works It can be scheduled to run automatically at midnight every night via this method I found here: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/24862/how-can-i-configure-my-comp… I am curious to know what you all think of this tactic if you will, please let me know as you can give it to others if you wish. Thank you.

Guard node configuration?
by Gabe D. 22 Apr '18

22 Apr '18

Hi guys. I've a relay running on Tor. It's an exit node now. And I noticed it has an entry guard flag which is great. But probability of it being an entry relay is 0%. How can I utilise this server to be an entry relay? How does one configure this and how does it work?

Whatever happened to those 47 PrivateInternetAccess exit relays?

Good day,They happened to pop up not so long ago,https://nusenu.github.io/OrNetRadar/2018/03/27/a8.htmlDid they abandon them? Did they feel the abuse that would come out of them was too much for them to handle?I don't know but it seems the Tor network would really benefit from their exit contribution that spanned many countries.--Best wishes,
