Re: [tor-relays] tor-relays Digest, Vol 88, Issue 45

2018-05-27 Thread Yash Kumar
Hi Olaf,
 Thank you for offering your help. I installed "ufw" and unblocked my
ORPort, but still I am getting the same issue. Can you please suggest what
else could be the problem ?

Thank you,
Yash

[tor-relays] Unable to confirm my ORPort is reachable

2018-05-24 Thread Yash Kumar
Hi all,
 I have set up a tor relay on my Ubuntu machine by following the
instructions given in the link
<https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide>. To confirm
whether the setup was done properly, I checked the status using the command:

$ sudo service tor status

and was getting status as "Active".
Further, I looked into the log file /var/log/tor/notices.log using the
command:

$ tail -f /var/log/tor/notices.log​

and following was the output:

May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Starting with guard context "default"
May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor network
May 24 18:24:54.000 [notice] Signaled readiness to systemd

204.13.164.118).

first hop
May 24 18:24:56.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 90%: Establishing a Tor circuit

like client functionality is working.
May 24 18:24:59.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 100%: Done
May 24 18:24:59.000 [notice] Now checking whether ORPort x.x.x.x:9001 is
reachable... (this may take up to 20 minutes -- look for log messages
indicating success)
May 24 18:44:55.000 [warn] Your server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to
confirm that its ORPort is reachable. Relays do not publish descriptors
until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check your firewalls,
ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc.

Can anyone please help me with this issue?
I am not able to figure out the reason behind this error message "Your
server (x.x.x.x:9001) has not managed to confirm that its ORPort is
reachable".
Please also let me know if you feel there is any issue with the tor
configuration.

Thank you,
Yash Kumar

[tor-relays] Setting up tor relay

2018-05-22 Thread 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
<https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide>, 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
<https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide>, 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
