What are the exact requirements for HSDir flag?
by Dimitar Milkov 01 Jan '16

01 Jan '16

Hello, and Happy New Year! I have a question regarding the HSDir flag. According to dir-spec.txt : "A router is a v2 hidden service directory if it stores and serves v2 hidden service descriptors, has the Stable and Fast flag, and the authority believes that it's been up for at least 96 hours (or the current value of MinUptimeHidServDirectoryV2)." However, if you browse the consensuses, you will find a lot of relays that meet the requirements above, but doesn't have HSDir. You will also notice that almost every relay with HSDir is also a conventional v2 directory mirror (e.g. with active DirPort). Is there any non-documented requirement, like minimum bandwidth or something?

Recently I have been receiving warnings on notices.log shown below. Today I started a new exit relay and immediately received a similar message. Is this familiar to anyone? What's my problem? Dec 31 03:26:35.000 [warn] Malformed IP "???" in address pattern; rejecting. Dec 31 03:26:35.000 [warn] Couldn't parse line "[???]:*". Dropping Dec 31 03:26:35.000 [warn] Malformed policy 'reject [???]:*'. Discarding entire policy list. Dec 31 03:26:35.000 [warn] append_exit_policy_string(): Bug: Unable to parse internally generated policy reject [???]:* (on Tor 0.2.7.6 ) L Brandt

Problem starting tor after upgrading to ubuntu 15.10 / tor 0.2.7.6
by James Moore 31 Dec '15

31 Dec '15

Hello all, I've been running two exits for quote some time now and today I decided to update my OS and tor version but it didn't go too well. I was updating from ubuntu 15.04 / 0.2.6.10 to 15.10 / 0.2.7.6. I'm using the apt feed from deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org wily main It appears that something about the AppArmor configuration is incorrect but I don't know enough about systemd/apparmor to properly diagnose it. Here are some log snippets: http://pastebin.com/8jzEiz3T It seems to come down to this tor(a)default.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/tor: Operation not permitted I discovered that commenting out the Hardening section of /lib/systemd/system/tor(a)default.service get's it working again but I'd prefer not to run out-of-band configuration files. Can anyone shed light on this problem? I'm happy to provide more info. James

Sustained large spike in outbound traffic - what might be going on?
by David Tomic 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

Hello everyone, I noticed something a little bit "odd" on one of my exit relays recently, and I just wanted to ask whether anybody might be able to account for what was actually happening, and whether it's likely to warrant any further investigation? TLDR; I noticed a fairly significant spike - in excess of 30MB/s (yes, megabytes) - of outbound traffic compared to inbound. http://s2.postimg.org/cvfzqvrsp/graph.png It persisted steadily for just over an hour, until I noticed what was going on and restarted Tor (not the whole server, only Tor), at which point my traffic appeared to return to normal again. I have this relay running a a dedicated machine, with multiple physical NICs, and the ONLY thing which should be touching this NIC is my Tor traffic. Thoughts?
