Here is an example: Would if I could - but here in AU you have to log all metadata for two years if you are an ISP. I either listen to what others have stated and host overseas or host overseas... I might be able to get a 20/20Mbs fibre for AU$250 - Just waiting to find out if they have data caps or not. Thanx all for your input. Paul PS - whats more important - More bandwidth for exit nodes or a faster presence in AU???

Tor-arm failure
by Arisbe 03 Sep '17

03 Sep '17

Hello people, I'm not a python programmer so I need some help with a problem. I have a number of Tor nodes and some bridges. Occasionally, when I install tor_arm I get a divide by zero message as follows: Exception in thread Thread-69: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 801, in __bootstrap_inner selt.run() File "/usr/share/arm/util/sysTools.py", line 517, in runnewValues["cpuAvg"] = total CpuTime / uptime ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero Exception in thread Thread-70 ...... I'm running debian jessie in this most recent example. 2 G memory, 20 G hdd. This is a bridge with only some daily use but typically 10-12 circuits. Does someone have experience debugging this problem? Thanks!

Re: [tor-relays] DIR Port. and NATO
by Dr Gerard Bulger 30 Aug '17

Roger, thank for the answer. Reason of no DIR port will be Accounting Max Enabled, although every unlikely I would reach the max I set, I use those settings to give me instant total usage within ARM While searching for some suitable wording if I ever get abuse complaints again, and searching the legal risks within Europe of Exits, I was rather surprised found NATO published a detailed appraisal of Tor. I thought it rather good, not very technical, and fair although it may be getting out of date. https://ccdcoe.org/sites/default/files/multimedia/pdf/TOR_Anonymity_Network… Gerry -----Original Message----- From: tor-relays [mailto:tor-relays-bounces@lists.torproject.org] On Behalf Of Roger Dingledine Sent: 30 August 2017 16:36 To: tor-relays(a)lists.torproject.org Subject: Re: [tor-relays] DIR Port On Wed, Aug 30, 2017 at 01:39:34PM +0100, Dr Gerard Bulger wrote: > DIR port on my relay and mini exit as being there on Atlas. > > The DIR port is open, indeed the DirPortFrontPage can be seen. > > Bandwidth is ???fast??? > > The exit is very limited in scope to avoid abuse claims, so few ports forwarded such as 443, but not 80. Is that the reason not showing? Check out your logs as the relay starts. Look for a log message like log_notice(LD_DIR, "Not advertising Dir%s (Reason: %s)", dir_port ? "Port" : "ectory Service support", reason); Common reasons include "AccountingMax enabled" and "BandwidthRate under 50KB". In general, it's fine for Tor to decide not to advertise your DirPort. Everything else is still working fine. Thanks for running a relay! --Roger _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays(a)lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

DIR Port
by Dr Gerard Bulger 30 Aug '17

30 Aug '17

DIR port on my relay and mini exit as being there on Atlas. The DIR port is open, indeed the DirPortFrontPage can be seen. Bandwidth is “fast” The exit is very limited in scope to avoid abuse claims, so few ports forwarded such as 443, but not 80. Is that the reason not showing? Gerry

Tor relay making normal internet unusable
by W Howard 30 Aug '17

30 Aug '17

Dear Group, I have some spare bandwidth and want to run an exit relay buy when I do the normal internet is so slow and I have to fill out so many captcha that it makes it unusable! Any ideas why? I think google etc block by default tor exit nodes. I was thinking about spinning up a vm and running tor on that. When I run as a bridge I don't see much traffic. Any ideas? Cheers!

IP Forwarding ON - on the host with tor relay - any risk ?
by Muppet96 28 Aug '17

28 Aug '17

Hi, on the one of my servers where tor relay is running I would like to configure openvpn server. In that case IP Forwarding needs to be enabled (ubuntu). Is there any security risk if this feature will be enabled on the tor-relay host ? Thanks Muppet96 Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

Fallback directory mirror DFRI7 is dead
by Linus Nordberg 26 Aug '17

26 Aug '17

Hi teor, Fallback directory mirror DFRI7 [0] is down, due to multiple disk krashes, since about 30h and will not come alive with the same key. [0] 171.25.193.131:80 orport=443 id=79861CF8522FC637EF046F7688F5289E49D94576 A new DFRI7 will appear on the same address and port within a couple of days. Should I simply update fallback_dirs.inc?

Tor Install Error
by Kurt Besig 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

While using apt-get to update my tor relay to a 'recommended' version I keep encountering this error: W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: http://deb.torproject.org trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 74A941BA219EC810 W: Failed to fetch http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/trusty/InRelease I've read several approaches to remedying this error, however I'm wondering what would be the 'most widely accepted as correct' method of dealing with the error? Thanks

OR banned?
by Marcus Danilo Leite Rodrigues 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Hello. I was running a Tor Relay for the past month (fingerprint 71BEBB61D0D35234D57087D035F12971FA315168) at my university and it seems that it got banned somehow. I got messages on my log like the following: http status 400 ("Fingerprint is marked rejected -- please contact us?") response from dirserver '171.25.193.9:443'. Please correct. I was hoping to get some information regarding this ban and how I could correct whatever was done wrong in order to get my relay up and running again. Best wishes, Marcus Rodrigues.

Any IP allocations available out there?
by Paul Templeton 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Thanx to all here on the list for input to earlier posts. Helped a lot. Question I have is there anywhere where you can get a block of IP address or lease as I'm in the process of getting a 10/10Mb SHDSL service(No flaming data cap :-)) here in AU but I want an IP range that abuse questions can be forwarded to me. The service provider doesn't provide ARIN registration but said if I have my own block I can update the BG and manage it my self. Regards, Paul PS - the best price I can do at the moment is $550pm - *SIGH* - but worth it.
