[tor-relays] Scoreboard enhancements / Trying Trusted Tor Traceroutes
Dear list members, Sorry for the completely empty mail a few minutes ago. What can i say, it's sunday and i had way less sleep than i should. But here the good news. The live scoreboard was modified. There is now a new column which shows the number of completed runs per IP and also at the bottom a value which displays the total sum of systems who completed at least 1 run. The board: http://128.174.241.211:443/relay_scoreboard Thanks for your attention. -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen / Sincerely yours Sebastian Urbach -- Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790), Inventor, journalist, printer, diplomat, and statesman ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

I am wondering why only 68 out of 283 completed the traceroute.

Hi Renke, Do you care to elaborate ? If you need assistance we can talk via private mail as well ... Bandwidth consumption is very low as you possible read on the project site. Do you run the test with scamper and or did you turn down the scanning speed ? The question remains why did many relay ops canceled the test before completion. As the scoreboard shows most of them would have completed the test in the estimated lowest time frame (around 4 days). The estimated max. time is about 24 days not 96 if you choose to run with traceroute and the default values instead of scamper. My best guess is that even 4 days was too long. After the test was started they wondered how long it would take and checked back with the faq, then decided to quit. Call it a hunch ;-) My system, as an example, took about 2 days and 23 hours to complete the run. I use scamper with the default settings. You can also turn up the pps value and finish even faster. How long will this take?: http://web.engr.illinois.edu/~das17/tor-traceroute_v1.html#q-howlong How much bandwidth, disk space, RAM, and CPU will this consume?: http://web.engr.illinois.edu/~das17/tor-traceroute_v1.html#q-howmanyresources -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen / Sincerely yours Sebastian Urbach -- Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790), Inventor, journalist, printer, diplomat, and statesman I am wondering why only 68 out of 283 completed the traceroute.

Re: [tor-relays] Scoreboard enhancements / Trying Trusted Tor Traceroutes
Sebastian, Do you care to elaborate ? If you need assistance we can talk via private mail as well ... I use the script intentionally with scamper restricted to 200 pps - not sure why (and what) I should elaborate ;) The needed time (even for the default of scamper with 1000 pps) is imho a rather good explanation to torland's question why only 68 of nearly 300 participating IPs finished the whole measurement at least once.

I launched the script from a high capacity tor relay host as well as from a VPS. I did not see a big difference in time. On both it finished within around 4 days. I would assume that someone who reads the documents/FAQ about the script, checks it and starts it, will not kill it before it finishes. So I am wondering if there is another reason for the high number of unfinished script cycles.

When you want to configure your machine as Tor entry for censored users, you need to set up Vidalia as Bridge. Download the Vidalia bridge bundle from https://www.torproject.org/download/download.html.en More information you find in the manual or on https://www.torproject.org/docs/bridges Somewhat more advanced is an obfuscated bridge https://www.torproject.org/projects/obfsproxy.html what works against the censorship of normal bridges. I recommend to read a little bit about Tor to get a better understanding. When you want to run the bridge on your main PC, it shall be always on. But be careful: As bridge operator you run a real server, with all risks of a machine, which is always on the net and listening for incoming connections. You should inform yourself at least about firewalls and the port-forwarding on your modem/router, so that external users can reach you bridge. After getting some experience with the bridge it might be better to switch to a small singleboard computer like the RaspberryPi, OLinuXino or Wandboard. They cost only little, consume less electricity like a desktop and do not contain you personal data. You can connect them directly to the modem. Best Regards Anton Thank you Anton Thanks again for your quick response. I am using a Siemens speed stream dsl router my friend recommend it for its built in security. I have read some of the pages you sent ,but will reread them and pull out my manual my friend sent me on my dsl router glad I kept it. Thanks again for the suggestion have a lot of studying to do! ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
Re: [tor-relays] Here,s my problem.
Do you have it set to be a relay? Then yes and good for you. To anyone whom might give a suggestion or answer. Just set up tor browser and relay package wanted to volunteer my computer and connection to those in parts of the world who don't have as much freedom of accesses as us.Question if I just set my computer to not go into sleep mode is that all that is needed to let people use my connection when I am not using it.Specs home built as-rock 787 pro3 8gig of ram dsl connect low speed att offers. ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
