[tor-relays] Tor master exits with a required protocol error

(CC'd tor-relays, please direct replies to tor-dev.) Hi, If you are running Tor master, your Tor may exit with a required protocol error. The issue was introduced in commit 991bec67ee (about 8 hours ago). The following conditions will make Tor exit: * Tor will exit on startup if it has a

[tor-relays] Australian relays

Hi all I currently run 3 Australian exits, and 1 non-exit, in the 262E84A99F53AE1F6860267F7C5DA5B96E57A46D family. Due to personal reasons I need to take the relays down, which is disappointing as they are currently in a unique AS. This will leave 6 Australian exits. I appreciate that

Olaf “which you can use for your own purposes (with only 10% of the bandwidth given to Tor) Not worth the risk. I did do that. I had a server with our email and old business web pages, so I wondered what should I do with the spare capacity? Hand 50% over to Tor. Felt good. Alas you

Re: [tor-relays] New exit node

DigitalOzean and Vultr is new for me and I check these offers. I want diversity. My Problem now are the languages of the provider homepages in South America. Not all of them are easy to translate with google translator. And what I can do in case of an abuse case? How to reply? Pages in Asia have

Re: [tor-relays] New exit node

Hi, OVH also has some traffic limits, that get cut down to 10 Mbps (depending on the plan). So you could probably have a fast relay until the limit is reached and then keep doing 10 Mbps. If the goal is to have better geographic diversity, I think a slower (or a bursting) relay might still be a

Re: [tor-relays] New exit node

Hello Olaf, OVH, DigitalOcean and Vultr have servers in Singapore. While this would probably add to geographic diversity, I am unsure if it's a good idea to run more relays in those AS. On the other hand, I run several OVH-Relays at different geographi locations. Best regards, Matthias On

Re: [tor-relays] New exit node - thanks

Felix, thanks for your help. The relay is now running with the option ExitRelay 1 which should trigger the default exit policy, if I didn't understand. The default front page, /usr/share/doc/tor/tor-exit-notice.html should also be displayed. Livak Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email.

[tor-relays] exit operators: overall DNS failure rate above 5% - please check your DNS

Dear Exit relay operators, first of all thanks for running exit relays! One of the crucial service that you provide in addition to forwarding TCP streams is DNS resolution for tor clients. Exits relays which fail to resolve hostnames are barely useful for tor clients. We noticed that lately

Roman, ignore this people. Do you have an intention for a relay in APAC? I looking for a provider in Asia with unlimited bandwith / traffic. I've found nothing, Or other recommendations? Maximum of 15$ is desired. Or South America. or Africa. Outside of Tor-overloaded areas. Want to reach my goal
