Relays do not publish descriptors until their ORPort and DirPort are

reachable.

What do I have to do - how to best set-up a decent strong firewall

on a freeBSD Exit?

If you run packet filter pf do you want to post the outputs to 'tor-relays' or better to 'lists.nycbug.org/pipermail/tor-bsd/':

# freebsd-version -ku ## kernel and userland version

# cat /etc/pf.conf and/or # pfctl -vvnf /etc/pf.conf ## n = no execution

# top -ab | grep tor

# sockstat -l | grep tor

# cat /etc/rc.conf | grep defaultrouter

# cat /etc/resolv.conf

Is your ports tree up to date ? I saw you went for 0.2.9.4-alpha (depracted) on Dec 1st when a newer version was available. 'portsnap fetch update' does it.
