Dutch Relays
by Christopher Sheats 19 Dec '23

19 Dec '23

Hello, Emerald Onion is looking for co-location and IP transit opportunities in the Netherlands for deploying new exit relays. We have our own ASN, v4 and v6 IP space. Priorities are: - Free or cheap transit - Free or cheap cross-connects - Free or cheap colo - Amsterdam Internet Exchange - Netherlands Internet Exchange Working with collectives, or starting a new one, is interesting too. Please share your thoughts! -- yawnbox https://disobey.net/@yawnbox https://digitalcourage.social/@EmeraldOnion

Declining Relay Usage
by likogan 18 Dec '23

18 Dec '23

My exit relay has seen steadily decreasing traffic from 8MBps to 6MBps over the span of three weeks. It averages a load of ~50% CPU usage and ~65% RAM usage. It's rated network capacity is 17Mbps on a 10GB link. Why would traffic decrease if I have plenty of spare resources? Are there ways I can configure my server to boost traffic? <https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/292FCACE773DC259B799914A23BE…>

If you mean that HardwareAccel is needed, I would still disagee. If I'm not mistaken the AES-NI support is implemented in OpenSSL not via an "engine" that you have to "use", it is just built-in internally on some deeper level. For a proof you can run "openssl engine" in the console of any AES-supporting machine, and you will not see any loadable engines there, aside from rdrand, which is unrelated, and "dynamic" which just means it can load some acceleration engines if it had any. And for instance VIA Padlock would show up as "padlock" in that list. Please use reply to all the mailing list. Sorry for bringing out your mail into the public, but it didn't seem to be strictly private in any case. -- With respect, Roman

Tor: Possible bug on 0.4.8.9 exit relay.
by George Hartley 18 Dec '23

18 Dec '23

Hi, while going through journalctl I noticed the following entries from my exit relay and wanted to report this non-fatal assertion. I also host a Guard relay on the same VM and IP, and it did not yet assert that message. The full assert() with the stack-trace is as follows: > Dec 14 16:29:36 matrix tor[575]: Dec 14 16:29:36.000 [warn] tor_bug_occurred_(): Bug: src/core/or/conflux.c:565: conflux_pick_first_leg: Non-fatal assertion !(smartlist_len(cfx->legs) <= 0) failed.

And because of TROVE-2023-007, I will have to update the relay to version 0.4.8.10, and reading the change-log of that version, it might actually fix this assert. Still wanted to let you guys know.

Issue with Relay Status Discrepancy on Tor Metrics
by Jan 18 Dec '23

18 Dec '23

Dear Tor Metrics Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to report an issue regarding the status of my relay on Tor Metrics. According to Nyx, my relay appears to be running without any problems. However, Tor Metrics indicates that it is offline. Relay Details: Name:BtcToTheMoon IP Address: 116.203.227.107 Contact Email: janthor007(a)gmail.com I have verified through Nyx that the relay is operational, yet the status on Tor Metrics remains unchanged. I am concerned about this discrepancy and would appreciate any assistance in resolving this matter. Thank you for your attention to this issue. Your help in rectifying this discrepancy would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Michal

Running a high-performance pluggable transports Tor bridge (FOCI 2023 short paper)
by David Fifield 11 Dec '23

11 Dec '23

Linus Nordberg and I wrote a short paper that was presented at FOCI 2023. The topic is how to use all the available CPU capacity of a server running a Tor relay. This is how the Snowflake bridges are set up. It might also be useful for anyone running a relay that is bottleneck on the CPU. If you have ever run multiple relays on one IP address for better scaling (if you are one of the relay operators affected by the recent AuthDirMaxServersPerAddr change), you might want to experiment with this setup. The difference is that all the instances of Tor have the same relay fingerprint, so they operate like one big relay instead of many small relays. https://www.bamsoftware.com/papers/pt-bridge-hiperf/ > The pluggable transports model in Tor separates the concerns of > anonymity and circumvention by running circumvention code in a > separate process, which exchanges information with the main Tor > process over local interprocess communication. This model leads to > problems with scaling, especially for transports, like meek and > Snowflake, whose blocking resistance does not rely on there being > numerous, independently administered bridges, but which rather forward > all traffic to one or a few centralized bridges. We identify what > bottlenecks arise as a bridge scales from 500 to 10,000 simultaneous > users, and then from 10,000 to 50,000, and show ways of overcoming > them, based on our experience running a Snowflake bridge. The key idea > is running multiple Tor processes in parallel on the bridge host, with > externally synchronized identity keys.

Exit operators on the 0.4.8.x series, please upgrade to 0.4.8.10 ASAP!
by Georg Koppen 10 Dec '23

10 Dec '23

Hello exit node operators! Today (2023-12-08) the Network Team has released a new Tor version, 0.4.8.10[1]. This update contains a fix to a remotely triggerable crash bug (TROVE-2023-007) affecting exit relays on the 0.4.8.x series. Please upgrade as soon as possible to maintain network stability and security if your relays are on that series. For those of you running their Tor relays using the Tor Debian repository, expect a new deb package to be available soon. Please note that this bug is specific to Tor exit relays on the 0.4.8.x series and does not impact other relays nor Tor clients or Tor powered apps (Tor Browser, Orbot, OnionShare). Thanks, Georg [1] https://forum.torproject.org/t/security-release-0-4-8-10/10536
