I’m also unconcerned about the potential Access Bill passing into law.

That's useful to know.

Now that I've used 'auto' for both DirPort and ORPort I still get 'unable to

Using a port scanning site no common ports appear open so there may be some

Re: [tor-relays] Is a relay on mobile broadband possible in Australia?

Thank you,

It is a Raspberry Pi tethered to a cellphone with bulk data and fair speed 
which is much faster than a landline and modem would be. Telstra guaranteed " 
nought bytes/sec ".

How? Go on...


The torrc manual says this.
ORPort [address:]PORT|auto [flags]
Advertise this port to listen for connections from Tor clients and servers. 
This option is required to be a Tor server. Set it to "auto" to have Tor pick a 
port for you

Does that mean ORPort myapparentip:Auto ? 
ORPort Auto is rejected.

Re: [tor-relays] Do not be intimidated "Zwiebelfreunde" and all others

out of German newspaper taz:https://www.taz.de/Kommentar-Razzien-bei-Netzaktivisten/!5515912/Comment raids on net activistsTargeted intimidationArmed police search the flats "Zwiebelfreunde" even though they are witnesses. That they were not summoned is scandalous.A LAN network is illuminatedThe collective Riseup provides communication infrastructure and has supporters around the world Photo: reutersYou have to imagine it this way: the police are at your doorstep. House search. Why? You are a member of a club that collects donations for Google. And on a blog calling for protests against an AFD party, there's a Gmail address as a contact - so you know who runs this blog?Of course not. Just as little as the members of the association "Onion Friends" need to know what exactly happened, except that the provider is not Google, but Riseup. It is questionable that the members will be brought to witness the appeal as witnesses. The fact that witnesses are not summoned, but armed police searched their homes is scandalous.For the decision of the Bavarian police, there are several possible explanations. None, however, suggests a particularly constitutional self-understanding of the authority. Actionism could have been one reason - because no one was successful in identifying the blog's authorship, the homes were unceremoniously searched by cumbersome people associated with the trial.For the Bavarian police that would be one of the more flattering explanations. Because documents of the association and other organizations located in the searched rooms were confiscated on a large scale, the victims suspect another purpose of the measure: to learn more about the activists themselves.It would not be the first time that alternative rooms are searched for flimsy reasons. And since the G20 summit a year ago, the repressive measures against left-wing infrastructure have increased significantly, especially in smaller cities. As long as the security authorities in this case do not contribute to the clarification, they must submit to the suspicion of deliberate intimidation.

Re: [tor-relays] what is the Nyx "measured" bandwidth?

Hej Damian,

Even as root Nyx asks for a 'Tor controller password'.
What would that be?

That may be so but the reason I brought this up was because the downloading of 
0.3.3 failed and someone might give up at that point.

Thanks Teor,I only thought that was important because I believe I have read here that torrc should be the latter version.Rob

The installation guide https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en points to a dead end if you choose the experimental version because it hasn't been changed to 0.3.4.x.The torrc that comes with 0.3.4.x is from 2013.

The part to do first and well is the advice for installing and setting-up a 
node.
There should be less presumption and more of what to do when the results are 
not as stated.

Arisbe,

It is odd for such well motivated people to leave such a mess unculled.

The most useful help is outside the website.

I hope a breath of fresh air is on the way.

Re: [tor-relays] A general question for relay operators

2018-06-27 Thread I

I wish I'd known that this is not the place to learn Linux or really how to run 
a node securely and efficiently.
Perhaps an acknowledgement of that might bring some other pages or styles of 
the current pages.
I'd like to see a collection of correct answers perhaps searchable but 
restricted and monitored. 

There are some brilliant people who help but there are others who say less 
useful things and there's nothing stopping them.

Has anyone wondered why the number of nodes is so incredibly low?

Thank you.There do seem to be a few faults and missing bits in the help stuff.As nothing has worked I'll reinstall Deb9 and start again.I wonder whether cheap VPS operators might have something to do with the problems. Rob

Re: [tor-relays] bridge installation help please







Keifer, thanks,	Try navigating to /var/log/tor/. This is where tor will normally save the log files to. See if there is a tor log text file there. If you have not started your relay, tor might not have created the log file yet.	Try starting the tor software then see if the file appears after that.As it showed before there is no /var/log/tor.I thought I installed it from root but typing tor as root brought /var/lib/tor is not owned by this user (root, 0) but by debian-tor (107)Failed to parse/validate config: Couldn't create private data directory "/var/lib/tor"Rob
