Hello!

> Hello,

> I wanted to do my part in helping the TOR network grow, so I've started a tor relay on a debian system. After running for a while and monitoring on Nyx, and checking Relay Search I've notice my link says "Offline". Just wanted to know if there is a way to confirm working status, apologies in advance as I'm quite new to this.

What is the fingerprint of your relay?
