If you don't restrict the capacity that Tor is supposed to use by setting 
options like "BandwidthRate" etc. in torrc, your relay will simply use all the 
bandwidth that is availible. So Tor will automatically push your router or 
your internet connection's capacity to their upper limits. That is, if you 
have less bandwidth availible than a single relay will even be assigned by the 
Tor network, of course. There are limits for that as well.

[tor-relays] Having trouble getting my relay to be picked up

2019-06-16 Thread Stephen Downward 

Good evening,

I am having some trouble running a tor relay node. I have forwarded TCP 
9001, and can confirm I can access it from outside of my network. I used 
the following instructions to set up my node: 
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide/DebianUbuntu


Here is the relevant snippet from my log file:

As you can see, I'm not getting "Self-testing indicates your ORPort is 
reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor.", 
which would indicate that the relay is working properly. The server does 
not have any outgoing connections blocked. I am unsure what to do in 
order to get this to work - some help would be beneficial.



Thanks!

It's hard for tor to work out the difference between a relay that's not being 
used,
a slow relay, and a relay that is being restricted by the router.

We expect fast, busy relays to have about 5000 connections open all the time.

Can you tell us the fingerprint of your relay, and how many connections it has
open right now?

There should be a heartbeat message in the logs.
