That is a fine question. Some countries currently seem to block relays by IP:Port combination, so the rest of the ports could be still reachable. In theory, it should work to be a relay and run obfsproxy on top of it, but i am not sure it works in practice. > I added the SoftwareTransportPlugins to my configuration and upon > rehashing it showed it listened to two more ports: > 22:43:39 [NOTICE] Registered server transport 'obfs2' at '0.0.0.0:47533' > 22:43:39 [NOTICE] Registered server transport 'obfs3' at '0.0.0.0:42580' > > I however did not yet add "BridgeRelay 1" because I don't know how > that affects relay functionality. > > Where do I go from here? Make sure the two ports are reachable from the outside. I don't know if Tor publishes these ports to BridgeDB (the place where censored users will learn about bridges) without being a bridge relay, and you cannot enable "BridgeRelay 1" because one Tor process can either be a relay or a bridge. If you want to make sure it works, you have to spin up and manage a second Tor process. -- Moritz Bartl https://www.torservers.net/ _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
