Hi Arisbe,

Thanks for running relays! If you're running multiple relays (as you've 
suggested) it's important to run then under the same family, see 
https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#MultipleRelays.


In regards to new relay usage, see

Many of which could make up list of new
software packages such places could install
as part of such program.
Just as they might have libreoffice on windows,
or even some easy / volunteer admin, $free software,
*nix machines for public use.

Oh, but your relay's spare capacity *is* used.
Just not the way you think.


Hi teor,

Thanks for your reassuring words. :)
I just wait a few weeks and see what happens. DoS mitigation will have 
it's impact I guess.
One of my relays has a lot circuits rejected compared to my other 
relays:


"DoS mitigation since startup: 79258 circuits rejected, 14 marked 
addresses. 701 connections closed. 1287 single hop clients refused."

Six hours after the upgrade it rejected 56722 circuits already..
So it seems to have a big impact indeed.

Regards,

Edwin.

[tor-relays] Tor program

Hello People,

Does anyone have a graphic or verbal discussion about the Tor network 
that they would share?  I want to give a talk at the public library 
about the uses, advantage and how-to's of Tor.  I want to get my facts 
correct before I commit to this task.

[tor-relays] Hidden service error in log

2018-03-14 Thread Gary
Hello.

I made a "hello world" hidden service and I had to following message in the
logs about exceeding launch limit. I have not seen this before. I had one
onion for a while and added a second one recently - not sure if that
matters as it is only complaining about the first one.

I am not sure what / why it is exceeding launch limit, I would be grateful
if someone could explain it to me.

Thanks.

Or, if you want a long-term stable version, use 0.2.9.

Long-term stable is for distributions and people who don't want to upgrade
major Tor versions every 6-12 months.
