Tor server behind NAT on Vista,, Update,,

[algenon flower]

I have Tor 12.1.9  running on windows Vista as a server for a few hours only relaying Tor server (I hope) information. System unexpectedly crashed once, I don't know why.  System stats indicate pretty normal usage,, Log below.

  One thing I noticed, right now Tor Bandwidth Usage GUI tells me recv:24.56 MB and Sent: 69.23 MB  I am allowing my server to act as Directory Mirror, but, troubling discrepancy between Recv and Sent.  Anyone have a clue about that?
 If it was just passing info between servers it should be near same, right?
   Also, on my machine behind NAT and SPI hardware firewall I am also running Zone Alarm. ZA's logs show a high rate of blocked intrusion attempts, I am currently tracking down some using Whois,, I guess that is just part of the game running a server,,,Comments welcome,, :)

As an experiment, I a attempting to run a Tor server on windows Vista home premium (I have to wait for another machine to run RedHat Linux Fedora) behind a NAT firewall. 
  Although I am new to the D-Link hardware firewall I believe I did open ports 443, 9030, 9001 to both incoming and outgoing traffic and so enable my machine running Vista to work as a Tor server. At this point I am restricting all traffic to other Tor servers until I solve some troublesome issues. 
  Tor log says Dir port reachable, but can't reach OrPort,, Bandwidth graph shows a few bursts of activity, then none. (?)
Humm, will go back to the firewall permissions and look for error, if anyone sees obvious err, please say :),,
  Will post results of Tor server on Vista  OS,,
