Law Enforcement Request
by teor 28 Apr '17

28 Apr '17

Hi all, Last week, we were contacted by Australian law enforcement, on behalf of German law enforcement, about one of our relays. It appears that some law enforcement agency had performed a guard discovery attack on a hidden service. One of our relays was that hidden service's guard. They requested that we provide a detailed network capture of that guard's traffic. We refused. (We do not keep detailed logs.) We also shut down the guard.

bind DNS Crash on Exit
by teor 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Hi all, Are you using bind as a local caching resolver on your exits? The DNS resolver on our exit crashed over the weekend due to this bug: https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-01466 It hasn't been patched yet in Debian: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-3137 So I have added a file: /etc/systemd/system/bind9.service.d/restart-on-abort.conf With the text: [Service] Restart=on-abort This should work for any systemd/bind9 Linux system.

The amazon node should be your guard relay (where you enter the Tor network). Then there are two relays after that. There isn't really any way to change that.

Relay traffic went to ~zero
by Jan Jancar 22 Apr '17

22 Apr '17

Hi all, I have been running my relay for about a year now and about two weeks ago my relay traffic went close to zero [1]. Any ideas as to why? Is it my ISP silently throttling my ORport after founding out I run a relay? Is it some misconfiguration on my part? My consensus weight went down from ~400 to 10, over the last few days.

maatuska's bwscanner down since 2017-04-14 -> significant drop in relay traffic
by relayoperator＠openmailboxbeta.com 20 Apr '17

20 Apr '17

Hi Tom! since maatuska's bwscanner is down [1] I see a significant drop of traffic on many of my relays, and I believe this is related. Do you have any update to [2] on when maatuska will report bwscan results again? thanks, a concerned relayoperator [1] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-consensus-health/2017-April/0078… https://consensus-health.torproject.org/graphs.html#bwauthgraphs [2] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-consensus-health/2017-April/0078…

Reducing Exit Node Connections
by Colin 19 Apr '17

19 Apr '17

Hello all, I'm having difficulties running exit nodes on VPS provided by Pulse Servers. Conntrack shows the number of connections climbing to 30,000 and this is untenable (at least for the cheap vps from this provider). I have tried MaxAdvertisedBandwidth at many settings with the same results, number of connections eventually climbs to around 30k. I'm interested in input regarding: * is it possible to reduce the number of connections, how does one achieve this? * given I have no other points of reference, is 30k connections on a typical low-cost VPS unreasonable? * anything else I should be considering? Thanks all. -- Colin

[warn] circuit_mark_for_close under (Linux 4.4.0-21-generic) Tor 0.2.9.10
by Paul 19 Apr '17

[warn] circuit_mark_for_close_(): Bug: Duplicate call to circuit_mark_for_close at ../src/or/onion.c:238 (first at ../src/or/command.c:579) (on Tor 0.2.9.10 ) Can this warning be neglected - I thought it is a BSD and not a Linux issue? Got nearly a hundred of them today - all with the same time stamp. Thanks - Paul

Some n00b questions about exits
by Mirimir 15 Apr '17

15 Apr '17

I'm thinking about running an IPv6 exit. I've found a Tor-friendly VPS provider, but they have metered bandwidth. And 500GB per month is about my limit. So I could have a 40Mbps/80Mbps exit that was up for maybe a week per month, or a much slower persistently stable exit. For exits, speed is better than persistence, right? Also, I can choose VPS in UK vs DE vs US. Which is needed most? And am I right that a DE exit will generate the least hassle? Thanks.
