Hello all, I brought a new non-exit relay online: ec2bridgerocks001 D06C B145 56C1 F73A F317 B555 C279 2F7B 105C 95B4 It's been operational for 6 days now, Tor has been reporting bandwidth usage, but when I try to look for it in the TorStatus page, it's not listed. I'm operating this relay on EC2 and I've opened all the usual ports. I've also checked the Tor metric portal, can't find it there either. So, I'm wondering - is there something I missed in the configuration? The torrc is pretty much the default EC2 one. Thank you I appreciate any thoughts/assistance. Respectfully, -- Conrad Rockenhaus http://www.rockenhaus.com/ http://www.lagparty.org/~conradr/

Hello, Thanks for pointing that out - didn't mean to have it setup as a bridge. Thanks. --Rock On Sat, Nov 30, 2013 at 2:41 PM, Sebastian Urbach <sebastian@urbach.org> wrote:

As Roger have said in his reply, it is not efficient to run a full relay on EC2. 500+500GB in+out bandwidth on EC2 costs $59.88/month. Same would cost only $5/month on Digital Ocean which is known to allow Tor non-exit relays. -- With respect, Roman

It sounds very much like you're running a bridge relay, not a public relay: https://www.torproject.org/docs/bridges https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq#RelayOrBridge

It's probably the 'bridgerelay 1' in your torrc that is doing it. That said, running a public relay on EC2 is quite expensive, since Amazon's prices for bandwidth are not competitive. --Roger
Perhaps he's running the Tor cloud obfsproxy bridge on the free ECC (EC2) deal at Amazon.

Sir, That was it. Didn't even check it when I brought it online, I figured the EC2 image just had setup the defaults for a non-exit relay. I'll be more vigilant next time and avoid assumptions. --Conradrock On Sat, Nov 30, 2013 at 5:23 PM, Roger Dingledine <arma@mit.edu> wrote:
