[tor-relays] OpenBSD: tor rc script: don't kill unrelated tor instances (patch)

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Hi Pascal, what do you think of changing OpenBSD's tor rc script to require perfect process matches when sending signals to them instead of the current "kill everything that starts with..." approach? I've put tor-relays on CC so people can speak up

[tor-relays] Raspberry Pi - Relay Setup

Hello All, I just bought a Raspberry Pi.. Wanted to setup as a Tor non exit relay. I have read so many instructions online on how to set it up but i am facing issues with opening ports. I am using a NetGear Router and require your inputs with the same. Also is static IP mandatory for setting u

Re: [tor-relays] Raspberry Pi - Relay Setup

What model of NetGear do you have? A static IP is not required. You may need to setup a Dynamic DNS if tor has issues with your dynamic IP. On Tue, Jun 23, 2015, 13:22 Tor Zilla wrote: > Hello All, > > I just bought a Raspberry Pi.. Wanted to setup as a Tor non exit relay. > > I have read so ma

Re: [tor-relays] Raspberry Pi - Relay Setup

Hi TorZilla11, A dynamic IP will be no problem for Tor. What you will see (at least I do with my relay, also a Raspberry Pi [0]) is losing the HSDir flag for four days with every new IP. Cheers, Jannis [0] https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/8827944C4BDCBDAC9079803F47823403C11A9B7A

I don't know in which country you live but an exit relay with your private internet connection might bring you in legal trouble. On 06/23/2015 09:26 PM, CJ Barlow wrote: > What model of NetGear do you have? > > A static IP is not required. You may need to setup a Dynamic DNS if tor > has issues w

Re: [tor-relays] Raspberry Pi - Relay Setup

Just install Tor: sudo apt-get -y install tor and edit the torrc file: nano /etc/tor/torrc make it a relay by adding this content (add your values and data): ORPort Nickname ContactInfo ExitPolicy reject *:* *If you are behind NAT, make sure the ports are properly forwarded to your raspberry

[tor-relays] Qualities of a good relay (Sean Saito)

I’m currently working with Dr. Virgil Griffith on Roster, a tor project that aims to reward relay operators with good relays. Right now we are brainstorming how to measure/quantify a good relay. Besides the obvious requirements of a good relay (e.g. speed, geo-diversity, constant uptime)

Re: [tor-relays] Raspberry Pi - Relay Setup

Let me add to this since I have a raspberry pi 2 tor relay: First off, I run debian jessie on my pi2, but pi2 supports debian wheezy. Make sure you harden your SSH to attack. You'll want to dedicate as little ram to graphics as possible. You also want to have AvoidDiskWrites and CPUNums in you
