Re: [tor-relays] Setting up tor/relay

[Paul Geurts]

hi,

I guess there are multiple ways of doing it so I would suggest to start at:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide

don't know whether you can run tor directly on a win10 box, an option I use
is to run a (or multiple) linux box on oracle vm virtual box manager. I am
definitely not an expert but acquired some experience throughout my own
setup ;-)
so let me know if I can help you out.

rgds, Paul

[tor-relays] Setting up tor/relay

[hawkeye6666]

Hello everybody!

I am using a windows ten computer on my home network. I would like to donate 
some of my bandwith but dont know how to do it.

As i read in the tor wiki, as I have a static IPadress I should use a bridge. 
But I have no idea how so if anyone got a good tutorial please let me know.___

Hi,

first of all: Thanks for your efforts.

Although you didn't actually mention it, I'll assume that you didn't find the 
"Self-testing" line in /var/log/syslog. Is that correct? If so, please check 
first whether Tor has started at all by running the following command:

$ sudo systemctl status tor

Please copy the output of that command.

Alternatively, maybe also the following happened to you when you wanted to 
check whether your relay works:

$ cat /var/log/syslog
cat: /var/log/syslog: Permission denied

If that's the case, please retry with:

$ sudo cat /var/log/syslog

If I didn't cover your problem here, please be more specific in what actually 
doesn't work.

[tor-relays] Setting up tor relay

[Yash Kumar]

Dear all,
 I want to setup my machine as a tor relay. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on
a Intel i5 processor with 4 GB of memory.
I followed the instructions given on this link
, but was
getting some issue. In one of the later steps, it says "Verify that your
relay works". This is done by checking my logfile(syslog) contains the
following text:

"Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside.
Excellent. Publishing server descriptor."

I checked the syslog by the command:

$ cat /var/log/syslog


To bring it to your knowledge, I have followed all the previous steps
mentioned on that link
, and was
successfully able to execute all the commands. I would request you to
please help me out in setting up my machine as  a relay to make tor network
faster and more usable.

Thank you,
Yash Kumar
