Hi,
few weeks ago ( more than 4) I have installed Freebsd with Tor relay service. System is connected to Tor network since more than one month but I see only 1-2 connections per day. I had Tor relay service on my Debian server for many years and I havent got any problems. With Freebsd its pain, nothing is working as expected. Any how I would like to build more BSD instances in few different countries, but first I need to know why its not working.
Does any one could help me to do some troubleshooting ? Maybe some of the parameters in the torrc are blocking traffic ?
My torrc without Hashedpassword, Nickname: ########################### SocksPort 0 Log notice file /var/log/tor/notices.log ControlPort 9051 ORPort 9001 RelayBandwidthRate 400 KBytes # Throttle traffic to 100KB/s (800Kbps) RelayBandwidthBurst 600 KBytes # But allow bursts up to 200KB (1600Kb) ContactInfo Dlugas-ny <dlugasny AT protonmail dot com> DirPort 9030 # what port to advertise for directory connections ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed PublishServerDescriptor 0 CellStatistics 1 ExtraInfoStatistics 1 ConnDirectionStatistics 1 EntryStatistics 1 LogMessageDomains 1 AvoidDiskWrites 1 WarnPlaintextPorts HeartbeatPeriod 1hours ServerTransportPlugin obfs2,obfs3 exec /usr/local/bin/obfsproxy managed ServerTransportPlugin obfs4 exec /usr/local/bin/obfsproxy managed ExtORPort auto ############################
Thanks in advance for any support

This is a very confused torrc. What are you trying to accomplish with it?
There's lines indicating you want to run a bridge (ServerTransportPlugin, ExtORPort)
There's a line indicating you don't want your bridge to be one distrubted via BridgeDB (PublishServerDescriptor 0), yet you wonder why no one is using your bride/relay.
Please read
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide
And don't set any options that it doesn't tell you to set. And don't set options you don't understand. `man tor` can help you understand what you're setting
