Hi, Thanks for adding me to the list. I setup a Tor Relay in Docker using this image: https://hub.docker.com/r/doudou34/tor-server Its running, so how can I test it? When I try to access it using port 9001, I'm unable to connect. I have opened the port on my firewall to the public. Haven't done it on my router yet but I have Portainer running in Docker and have no problem accessing it. Not a lot of instructions that I can find. I can post the torrc file but it's the same as the one on the docker page. ### /etc/torrc ### # see /etc/torrc/torrc.default and https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en # Server's public IP Address (usually automatic) #Address 10.10.10.10 # Port to advertise for incoming Tor connections. # common ports are 9001, 443 ORPort 9001 # Mirror directory information for others (optional) # common ports are 9030, 80 #DirPort 9030 # Run as a relay only (not as an exit node) ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed # Set limits #RelayBandwidthRate 1024 KB # Throttle traffic to #RelayBandwidthBurst 2048 KB # But allow bursts up to #MaxMemInQueues 512 MB # Limit Memory usage to # Run Tor as obfuscated bridge #ServerTransportPlugin obfs3 exec /usr/bin/obfsproxy managed #ServerTransportListenAddr obfs3 0.0.0.0:54444 #BridgeRelay 1 # Run Tor only as a server (no local applications) SocksPort 0 # Run Tor as a regular user (do not change this) User debian-tor DataDirectory /var/lib/tor # If no Nickname or ContactInfo is set, docker-entrypoint will use # the environment variables to add Nickname/ContactInfo here #Nickname Tor4 # only use letters and numbers #ContactInfo email@example.org I've only been using docker for a few days, so maybe its an issue there. TIA
I think I figured it out. Seems DirPort was commented out. I am getting a warning that my contact info isn't set. I uncommented that section and put a name and email address. Also uncommented the Nickname. Still getting the warning. Just curious, what are the bandwidth requirements to be a bridge? I'm on a 'consumer router' and have around 400 Mbs u/l and 200 Mbs d/l TIA -----Original Message----- From: tor-relays <tor-relays-bounces@lists.torproject.org> On Behalf Of tdukes@palmettoshopper.com Sent: Monday, March 21, 2022 5:55 PM To: tor-relays@lists.torproject.org Subject: [tor-relays] Newbie needs help Hi, Thanks for adding me to the list.

Regards to your bandwidth for a bridge, your speeds seem fine. It is more than enough to handle multiple people at once. Just make sure that you have enough resources to go with it. With the warning, did you restart the service and check the logs? Any errors can be posted here allowing us to help you better. Thanks for running a Tor Bridge and helping fight censorship!

Tor project recommends 16Mbits/s in each direction minimum <https://community.torproject.org/relay/relays-requirements/> so you should be fine. However note the concurrent connections requirement, which can "overwhelm consumer-level routers." That might be something to watch. On 3/22/22 09:11, tdukes@palmettoshopper.com wrote:

Hello, thanks for running a relay.
I am getting a warning that my contact info isn't set. I uncommented that section and put a name and email address.
Have you reloaded the configuration after editing torrc? In Debian you can do so with sudo systemctl reload tor
Also uncommented the Nickname.
Nickname is the nickname for your relay, ContactInfo is administrative contact information that can be used to contact you if your relay or bridge is misconfigured or something eng else goes wrong. They shouldn't be related. Bonus: you may want to take a look at the contactinfo information sharing specification[1].
Just curious, what are the bandwidth requirements to be a bridge? I'm on a 'consumer router' and have around 400 Mbs u/l and 200 Mbs d/l
From [2][3] I suppose you should have at least 1 Mbit/s for obfs4, or no bandwidth requirements for snowflake.
