Hello everyone,
I have an interesting problem. I am monitoring my relay using arm. I am getting the following warnings:
05:56:12 [WARN] Received directory with skewed time (server '154.35.32.5:80'):
It seems that our clock is behind by 1 hours, 0 minutes, or that theirs is ahead. Tor requires an accurate clock to work: please check your time, timezone, and date settings.
Most of the messages tell me that my clock is an hour behind. However, I also get these messages occasionally (but not as often):
02:07:27 [WARN] Our clock is 52 minutes, 35 seconds behind the time
published in the consensus network status document (2014-11-14 02:00:00 UTC). Tor needs an accurate clock to work correctly. Please check your time and date settings!
I am running a Tor exit relay on a FreeBSD VPS. Said VPS is in Czech Republic. If I set the time to CET, it is 1 hour behind true CET (GMT+1); therefore, I have it set to EET (GMT+2.) I have verified the time is correct in Czech Republic. This problem is rather frustrating because it is causing my server to throw away circuit data as old data.
Could someone shine some light on this?
Thanks, Austin

Sounds like something is broken here, maybe a daylight saving issue? Are you running ntp?

Check your ntp port and also your ntp sync server you are using. I hope you are not tunneling the NTP protocol through TOR.

That's strange. I was working off of the hardware clock and I figured that the resolution would be fine enough (because it was the exact same as CET if I set it to EET.)
Additionally, I thought tzsetup utilized ntp, however it was based off of the jail host's clock (which was not synchronized via ntp.)
The messages have since stopped. Silly mistake, easy fix. Thanks fellas.

Hello Austin,
The clock is very important to Tor, you need accurate clock all the time.
Do you run NTPDATE or NTPD service inside your VPS? The virutal servers are sometimes problematic, depending on virtualization, when coming to hwclock and dedicated time.
You need to open a ticket with your VPS provider and ask them what virtualization technique they use and if there is a NTP daemon on the hypervisor (physical host server) which sets the time inside the guests (virtual machines). Make sure the time is correct on your master host server and rely on that time instead of trying to run your own NTP service. If they say the master server doesn't run this service or set the time inside guests (i doubt it), you can then run NTP inside your VPS as follows:
(NTP and NTPDATE are included in FreeBSD base system so you don't have to install anything). Run these commands:
$ service ntpd stop (or onestop if stop doesn't work, if it says ntpd is not running just proceed with the following commands)
$ echo 'ntp_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf $ echo 'ntpdate_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf $ ntpdate 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org $ service ntpd start
Your timezone does not matter. Tor calculates the time in UNIX time format, so you can be in any time zone, GMT +1, UTC, EET, whatever - Tor will work just fine if the UNIX time format is accurate. The localtime via timezone is just a translation/calculation of UNIX timestamp.

'154.35.32.5:80'): It seems that our clock is behind by 1 hours, 0 minutes, or that theirs is ahead. Tor requires an accurate clock to work: please check your time, timezone, and date settings.
Most of the messages tell me that my clock is an hour behind. However, I also get these messages occasionally (but not as often):

published in the consensus network status document (2014-11-14 02:00:00 UTC). Tor needs an accurate clock to work correctly. Please check your time and date settings!
I am running a Tor exit relay on a FreeBSD VPS. Said VPS is in Czech Republic. If I set the time to CET, it is 1 hour behind true CET (GMT+1); therefore, I have it set to EET (GMT+2.) I have verified the time is correct in Czech Republic. This problem is rather frustrating because it is causing my server to throw away circuit data as old data.
Could someone shine some light on this?
Thanks, Austin

If your vps provider is openvz, you are shit out of luck because you can't set time.

Hello Austin,
The clock is very important to Tor, you need accurate clock all the time.
Do you run NTPDATE or NTPD service inside your VPS? The virutal servers are sometimes problematic, depending on virtualization, when coming to hwclock and dedicated time.
You need to open a ticket with your VPS provider and ask them what virtualization technique they use and if there is a NTP daemon on the hypervisor (physical host server) which sets the time inside the guests (virtual machines). Make sure the time is correct on your master host server and rely on that time instead of trying to run your own NTP service. If they say the master server doesn't run this service or set the time inside guests (i doubt it), you can then run NTP inside your VPS as follows:
(NTP and NTPDATE are included in FreeBSD base system so you don't have to install anything). Run these commands:
$ service ntpd stop (or onestop if stop doesn't work, if it says ntpd is not running just proceed with the following commands)
$ echo 'ntp_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf $ echo 'ntpdate_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf $ ntpdate 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org $ service ntpd start
Your timezone does not matter. Tor calculates the time in UNIX time format, so you can be in any time zone, GMT +1, UTC, EET, whatever - Tor will work just fine if the UNIX time format is accurate. The localtime via timezone is just a translation/calculation of UNIX timestamp.

Or FreeBSD Jail system... anyway your provider has the interest to have an accurate time on the host server... so it shouldn't be a problem at all - it can be fixed in few seconds.. it's just a misconfiguration.
No sane person will refuse to set the correct time on a host server...

You'd think, but not always. Relying on an openvz hypervisor to be "not fucked up" is a gamble.
I, for example, routinely run into openvz hosts that don't have the most *basic* iptables modules loaded in the kernel for connection tracking (read: stateful firewall).
I have to seriously have specific checks in my puppet manifests to make sure I'm not running on openvz, otherwise fierwalls will fail more often than not.

Hi all,
I'm brand new to this, so I'll apologize in advance if this is a silly question.
I've just recently set up a Tor box on Debian, all looks well, logs show it's happy. I've got it setup for 100 Meg bandwidth, 200M burst.
My confusion is because when I look it up on Globe or Atlas, it shows "Observed" bandwidth as 64.5k, yet it shows "Bandwidth Values" as 100 and 200 Meg, as I have them specified in torrc.
My connection is an unloaded Gig-Eth fiber into a data center directly, I'm the ISP in this case; no filtering anywhere.
Thanks in advance.

What you are observing is normal, expect the observed bandwidth to increase gradually over time as more traffic passes through your relay. For details, please have a look at [1].
