Hi all,

 

So I am switching the OBFS4 bridge I was running via Tor Expert Bundle on Windows 10 over to running it via Debian app for Windows 10.

 

This app is on the Windows store at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/debian/9msvkqc78pk6?activetab=pivot:overviewtab

 

Essentially, it is an app that lets you run Linux packages on Windows. I made the switch so that I could keep tor and obfs4 up to date using unattended upgrades.

 

However, for some odd reason, despite the fact I backed up the tor identity keys and pasted them into the keys directory when I moved over, the bridge is still generating new keys on startup. I copied the key files from my expert bundle bridge to

/var/lib/tor/keys directory in the Linu terminal, I copied all of the files. It’s a bridge so no big deal I guess, but wonder why that is happening.

And, I tested to see of unattended upgrades was working correctly after configuring it with these instructions:

And got this the attached photo as a result, does this mean it is keeping tor and obfs4 up to date?

 

Thanks very much.
