Hello everyone!
You might recall that Tor is restricting the possible amount of Tor
relays per IP address to 2, mainly for Sybil prevention reasons.[1]
Given that Tor on the relay side at least is not multithreaded yet (and
will likely not be for the near and medium future) that's wasting a lot
of useful resources as many servers can easily handle more than 2
relays. Additionally, IPv4 addresses are scarce/expensive.
I have good news for you, though. Thanks to a push by our relay …
[View More]operator
community we raised that limit to 4 with the help of the directory
authorities (by having set `AuthDirMaxServersPerAddr 4` on a majority of
them) and, depending on how that experiment goes, consider raising it
even to 8.
Thus from now one should be able to run 4 relays per IP address. We are
looking very much forward to seeing a bunch of additional relays
entering the network and making it stronger. :)
For more details, information and discussion see: tor#40744.[2]
Thanks,
Georg

Hello everyone.
At last Saturday's Tor Relay Operators Meetup, ongoing work on a "relays at
universities" campaign was announced. I am interested in it as I may be able
to help a little, so I'd like to receive any news, but I don't remember any
message about it on tor-relays(a)lists.torproject.org list, and
I see that tor-relays-universities(a)lists.torproject.org hasn't received any
message at all since the only one from 2021.
Is there a way to keep up with the campaign project already or it'…
[View More]s being
worked on by a "closed group"?
Thanks,
Eldalië

Hi,
relayor v23.0.0 is released.
relayor is an ansible role that helps you with running tor relays with minimal effort (automate everything).
https://github.com/nusenu/ansible-relayor#main-benefits-for-a-tor-relay-ope…
This release comes with some great new prometheus integration features
(some labels that tor does not provide out of the box).
I'll follow up with a post that gives a general introduction on how to use relayor's
prometheus integration soon.
Changelog:
https://github.com/…
[View More]nusenu/ansible-relayor/releases/tag/v23.0.0
Note: If you used relayor's prometheus support in previous relayor releases, make
sure to set the tor_prometheus_scrape_file variable after upgrading to v23.0.0 and before running
ansible-playbook with v23.0.0 for the first time. See the README for an example value.
kind regards,
nusenu

Hello:
I have recently built a Tor Bridge (nickname is h4ck3rspace) and when it first went up, it was up to about two weeks and then it went down. So I brought it up again and ever since, it routinely goes down every 1 to 3 nights, between 8p and 10p EST. I've never seen this type of behavior before. Is there a way to know why it keeps going down so often, and subsequently how to prevent it?
My area doesn't suffer from power outages and each time I restart Tor I wait to make sure it says that …
[View More]it is visible externally and that it will be published.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
