[tor-relays] bridge not accessible through obfs4 port

Dear friends, I am uncuccessfully running a bridge that uses obfs4 as pluggable transport. (At least it should.) Today I actually tried to connect to it and it is possible to connect to the bridge using the ORport. But when I tried to start tor browser with this setting to use obfs4: obfs4

Hi! Most online surveys ask the participants to confirm that their replies can be used after the last question of the survey. I would recommend you to do that, too. Sometimes people give random answers because they are curious about the survey's questions. ;-)   Dear Tor relay operators,
