Help setting up 2 Relays
Hello, I was wondering it anyone more experienced could help me with fixing 1 TOR Exit and 1 TOR Relay. I have everything configured and fingerprints made they just seem to not me recognized by tor metrics. Tor Relay: B0852A98ECDB40E95319DEE339662EEF50708066 Tor Exit: A5D03FC9BE6EE32BD20EE59649BAD802BF4A49FC There is nothing in the notice logs as to why this would be happening. Maybe someone can see what the DA's think of them. Then give me advice on what to do. Thanks, John Csuti postmaster@coolcomputers.info

Go to the bottom of https://consensus-health.torproject.org/#relayinfo and then put in your relay fingerprints. It looks like some of the directory authorities think they're running, and some don't. My guess is that they advertise an IPv6 address, and that this address is not reachable. --Roger
Interesting I’ll have to look into that. I am giving both IPv4 and IPv6 so that could be the issue. Thanks, John Csuti

What issue is this config trying to solve? A properly working IPv6+IPv4 combination does not require NoAdvertise. I guess if your IPv6 is broken, that would be one way of not telling anyone that you have it. (But then why not remove from the config altogether). Secondly, I read that there's little to no point in specifying DirPort currently. Is that not correct, or do you have any reason to keep it?

Hello,
I changed my firewall to allow ipv6 and can access the ports i forgot to allow them through my 10GB pfsense router. What are we talking about the DirPort and why does your torrc use ipv6 on the DirPort from what i know IPv6 is not used on the directory. Also is there any reason you have the OutboundBindAddress? Does your system have 2 IPv4 addresses? You general torrc seems to be over complicating things. Is there a reason to also specify the Address and then the same address in the DirPort/ORPort? Either way im not sure what your going on about the NoAdvertise flag as it is not at all what i need. Thanks, John Csuti

I misunderstood your problem - sry for that. So forget my answer. My system runs 2 relays at a 2nd dedicated ip address. The torrc is fine as AFAICS. -- Toralf
