I am happy to report that we have upgraded all our relays to Tor 0.4.8.0-alpha-dev and for the pst 8 days since the upgrade the bind conflict has ceased. No firewall rules are being used. No sysctl settings helped. -- Christopher Sheats (yawnbox) Executive Director Emerald Onion Signal: +1 206.7

I apologize for my newbie-ness. I'm game to do my part and operate a relay, something simple for a technologically simple guy, like a guard or middle relay. I'm about ready to try and install for operation on my windows PC. The resources say that if you want to operate a relay on windows you need

Hello, so to also enable IPv6 on my relay I followed the post-install article which said that one should ping all IPv6 authorities with the following command: "ping6 -c2 2001:858:2:2:aabb:0:563b:1526 && ping6 -c2 2620:13:4000:6000::1000:118 && ping6 -c2 2001:67c:289c::9 && ping6 -c2 2001:678:55

Hi all here, Many of us, French relay operators and Tor volunteers, thought it would be useful to restart the tor-relays-fr list, to discuss Tor relays in French. Having lost access to the original list created in 2012, we asked The Tor Project to create a new one. Arma was kind enough to re
