[tor-relays] Running A Tor Relay On Windows 10 (Was Continuing To Run A Relay On Mac OS High Sierra Via Homebrew After A New Mac OS Version Is Released)
Hello, So adding to the previous discussion, I was not able to run Debian Linux on my machine, or the new Mac OS. What I ended up doing was formatting the hard drive (erasing the OS and all), then did a fresh install of Debian Linux, which after installing failed to load. However, what I then did a fresh install of was Windows 10, and it is successfully up and running. I have my relay fingerprint backed up. If someone could please send me the instructions for running a relay on Windows 10, that would be appreciated. I know I could run a Debian Linux virtual machine, but would rather not have to deal with VMs. Your instructions (or ideas) are appreciated. Thank you. ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

Re: [tor-relays] Continuing To Run A Relay On Mac OS High Sierra Via Homebrew After A New Mac OS Version Is Released
Ok. So I removed Mac OS and installed Linux, and after an entire day of trying everything, Linux crashed when I tried to load it no matter what I did. I am now going to try installing Windows 10 on it, is there a way to run a relay on Windows 10? Thanks.

On the other hand, people create threads frequently about the fate of their relay(s) hosted by various firms. And, with few exceptions, I don't recall seeing replies here from those firms. In a few cases, operators have posted messages received from providers. But there have rarely been replies. Once or twice in the last few years, as I recall. I can't say that I really care.

We wouldn’t have to make these threads if community members like Isaac didn’t make threads about a lack of response from one team member. We could: A) Inform everyone B) Inform a few customers and hope we don’t miss any C) Ignore the problem and have more negative threads created about us. Whatever we do it turns out negative for someone.

Can anyone imagine if even one or two other providers conducted themselves similarly on relays@? It's been stated politely before by teor, but much of the greypony discussion (positive and negative) has no place here. The term "drama queen" is not appropriate either though. It has sexist connotations. The irony is that the most over-sensitive person I know in the public light who does perform dramatically and irrationally happens to be the president of a certain country, and he identifies strongly as a male. g -- 34A6 0A1F F8EF B465 866F F0C5 5D92 1FD1 ECF6 1682 ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

How could I install Linux on a 2011 iMac? I know I could run a virtual machine, but could I set Linux as the default OS to boot from? If I were to do this, could I copy my relay fingerprint over? Thanks.

Ubuntu uses apt for its package manager "under the hood" so once you're up and running installing Tor would be as simple as issuing "apt-get install Tor" from a root terminal. Alternatively if you install xcode you will be able to compile Tor from source, which is a little more involved than using homebrew but will allow you to keep up to date. You can try Linux in a virtual machine on your Mac to make sure it does what you need it to. Good luck!

Ugh. As my relay is running via homebrew, I created a homebrew support ticket for this incident, and this was their response. “Generally homebrew supports only the last 3 releases, which would mean you have 2 more years of bottle support at least. It doesn’t mean it’ll stop working the day after it ends though. While having an up to date system is a good thing, the homebrew packages might very well work for years after official support is dropped, you’ll just have to compile updates for yourself.” The official homebrew support ticket can be viewed here: https://discourse.brew.sh/t/continued-support-for-certain-processes-on-older-versions-of-mac-os/3119 Seeing as they say homebrew supports the last three releases of Mac OS, I should be fine for another while. However, they hinted that the main thing that is dropped support for is bottles, so I am wondering if running the tor relay software via homebrew requires this process? I can’t really buy a new computer right now, and that’s the only available that isn’t a laptop, so I am trying to find available options.
