Relay migration: best practices?
by tor＠nullvoid.me 29 May '22

29 May '22

Hello, I operate a small family of relays, over the 5 years it's been very set and forget and easy to maintain. Over those 5 years the servers have been cluttered with other half completed projects and general mess. I plan on reinstalling the OS from scratch, and understand I must backup the "keys/ed25519_master_id_secret_key" and "keys/secret_id_key" in the DataDirectory. Then copy them over on the new server. The hostname will change but the IP will stay the same. The server I am working on is not listed as a fallback directory server, but has been in the past. Is there any other things I can do to disrupt the damage done to the tor network during this downtime? Especially to any clients using it as a bridge. Thanks,

Sanity check on NumCPUs
by Thoughts 29 May '22

29 May '22

For a non-exit relay, is "NumCPUs 2" still the recommended maximum? Running on a quad core and recently saw a message indicating I had insufficient CPU power to support the desired number of connections... Thanks, Kevin

Loss of Guard and HS Dir flags
by Eddie 29 May '22

29 May '22

I currently run 3 relays, across different servers and today I noticed that one has now lost it's Guard and HS Dir flags. What's surprising is that this particular relay has the highest Bandwidth and Consensus Weight of all 3 and has not been restarted for over a month. The stats for all 3 can be found with: OhNoAnotherRelay I know that just running the relay is the important part and caring about what flags it has is a side issue, but I'm just interested in seeing why this has happened. Cheers.

Question about new log messages after 0.4.7.7 upgrade
by wardz 27 May '22

27 May '22

Been getting these syslog messages occasionally *after* the 0.4.7.7 upgrade on my bridge: -- May 26 21:00:58 torbridge Tor[ ]: Unexpected path length 4 for exit circuit 66 5, purpose 5 [3 similar message(s) suppressed in last 5400 seconds] May 26 16:26:17 torbridge kernel: [ ] TCP: eth0: Driver has suspect GRO implementation, TCP performance may be compromised. -- Anyone know what they mean and if it's something I should be worried about? Calculated advertised bandwidth seems to be about the same. For reference, im running latest Raspbian 64-bit Lite on a Raspberry 4 with latest firmware aswell. driver: bcmgenetversion: 5.15.41-v8+ Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email.
