Dear all, I want to setup my machine as a tor relay. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Intel i5 processor with 4 GB of memory. I followed the instructions given on this link https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide, but was getting some issue. In one of the later steps, it says "Verify that your relay works". This is done by checking my logfile(syslog) contains the following text:
"Self-testing indicates your ORPort is reachable from the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor."
I checked the syslog by the command:
$ cat /var/log/syslog
To bring it to your knowledge, I have followed all the previous steps mentioned on that link https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide, and was successfully able to execute all the commands. I would request you to please help me out in setting up my machine as a relay to make tor network faster and more usable.
Thank you, Yash Kumar
