Server lost Stable flag but has more than 60 days uptime
Hello list, I'm trying to find out why the server (https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/11DF0017A43AF1F08825CD5D97329...) has lost its stable flag. As far as I can see it is running a recent version of tor and has an uptime of over 60 days. Are there other reasons that factor into the Stable flag? The log file doesn't give my an indication that there is anything wrong, either. Any ideas?
I can't speak for why it didn't have the Stable flag yesterday, but you don't have it at this moment because you only have ~21 hours of uptime, as stated on that page. Stable flag requirements: https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/dir-spec.txt#n2427 By my estimation from reading the spec and a *quick* skim of the code, you will regain the Stable flag at ~7 days of uptime. The Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) stuff is irrelevant: it's currently set to ~38 days by the authorities, but the code says anything more than ~7 shall be considered Stable. Now that I've said the above, I expect to be corrected. Lol. Matt On 1/21/21 7:02 AM, raltullou@posteo.org wrote:

Hi Matt, thank you for the reply. I restarted the server since I hoped it would fix the underlying problem but I don't it did. I'll wait for 7 days as you suggested but the server has been up for almost four years now so a reboot shouldn't affect the stable flag. Its sister server was rebooted at the same time but still counts as stable. The traffic graphs show that the server has been up the entire time so I really don't know what's going on.

Took 15 days the last time you lost it.. nothing you can do but wait, anyway. William 2021-01-25 10:53 GMT, raltullou@posteo.org <raltullou@posteo.org>:

I had a similar problem recently. As I suspected an MTU path discovery problem due to filtered ICMP traffic somewhere along the path I started to clamp TCP MSS to 1200. Performancewise not exactly great, but I am back in business since. Done this way on my raspi: # iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --set-mss 1200 C Am 25.01.21 um 11:53 schrieb raltullou@posteo.org:
