Thanks Sebastian, That explains the loss of guard status back in August at least. I totally missed that announcement.

Back to the main issue, it does look like one or two others at least are having this problem. Is it simply as a result of being in a Lizard-blacklisted netblock? Bigbud is in 85.119.0.0/16. Is the current Lizard-blacklist published or is it only known to the directory authorities?

As i recall there was a mail from Giovanny a few days ago and he reported his relay being down. But he had log file entries like: [warn] http status 400 ("Authdir is rejecting routers in this range.") response from dirserver '128.31.0.39:9131'. Any of those in your log ?

thanks

Hi,

...

Found the snippet with the changes for the guards:

...

Tor Weekly News, 30th of July 2014

...

Once directory authorities have upgraded, they will “assign the Guard flag to the fastest 25% of the network”. Some experiments showed that “for the current network, this results in about 1100 guards, down from 2500.”
