[tor-relays] Shit happens

Ohh fuck. Too many terminals open and in the wrong:
"rm -R / var / lib / tor-instances"
I idiot of course have _no_ backup of the keys. :-(

Hitting x in nyx or waiting a few days or rebooting does not make any
change.


Nyx or arm must be called as root to save the config.

Look at the torrc file with nano or vim.

[tor-relays] MyFamily line commented out but stays valid?

2019-10-22 Thread Michael Gerstacker
Hi,

when i comment out the MyFamily line with an # in the torrc on one relay it
seems to be still handled like before.

Hitting x in nyx or waiting a few days or rebooting does not make any
change.

Is this expected?

I expected that relay to show as part of no family now and listed as
"Alleged Family Member" on all other relays which still list that
fingerprint in their torrc.

Good question.

Very few tor relays are actually under-utilised.

Many operators expect 100% utilisation, but low-latency protocols work
best around 10% utilisation. We're currently at 30%.

So feel free to deploy a middle, and if it's fast and stable enough,
it might become a guard.

Some bridges are kept in reserve. Others are handed out using less
popular methods. So feel free to deploy multiple bridges on the same
IP address or subnet.
