Re: Re: Re: Re: My tor exit node is STILL gone from the node list
I haven't had the time and sufficient knowledge to work out what's wrong, but for some reason the node is back online for a 'record' of nearly 48 hours now: http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=d3eb313299a0082a4a4e10e0eb758e4f0163f4f0 I didn't change anything and the ISP didn't inform me about any changes on their side. -Alexandru -- - www.posta.ro - Romanias first free webmail since 1998! _ - powered by www.posta.ro

Unless you know for sure that nothing has changed on the path between your server and all the directory servers you don't know if path MTU discovery being broken (if it really is) is a new problem or not. I have again spoken to my ISP and they say routing is fine. Routing could very well be just fine PMUTD still be broken.. but it looks like the problem is with Ecatel network announcements. Check this out: http://bgplay.routeviews.org/bgplay/ give it your network (89.248.169.0/24), select the last few days and watch how the route bounces around. I'd suggest getting a list of the directory servers and creating a script that tries to connect to each one every 20-30 minutes. Log the status of each connection attempt and, assuming there's some failures, go back to your provider with the list of IP addresses and times when you couldn't connect to them. Give them specific times IP addresses and they might be able to fix whatever it is. What all do the directory servers need to do/see before marking your server as a good exit? It'd be nice to know what they can't do that's keeping your server from being marked as a good exit.. I'm interested in that as well. I still cannot get it to be flagged 'Running' reliably. Would TOR logging on my side help on this? I guess not? I have no idea, but it couldn't hurt to enable logging and see if there's anything interesting logged. Appreciate any help, I'm sure you don't mind getting 4MB/s exits back. ;-) It'd be nice if somebody could give you the status/timestamp of your server as seen from the directory servers. That might be enough to help your provider figure out what the problem is. Regards, Lee

Re: Re: Re: My tor exit node is STILL gone from the node list
Hi Lee, Have you talked to your provider about reachability? Earlier I couldn't do a traceroute to your machine now I can: I haven't spoken to them, no. What I did was reconfigure the firewall to allow ICMP. Could it be momentarily routing problems that cause this? At the moment, the node seems to be, too. -- Alexandru -- - www.posta.ro - Romanias first free webmail since 1998! _ - powered by www.posta.ro

But it would be your provider that's having the routing problems; it's not because of anything you did/didn't do.
