Re: [tor-relays] Can't connect to bridge after rebuilding server



Ha.  I copied the complete keys directory from my old configuration to the new, hoping everything would be the same.  But I didn't realise that the cert used in the connection string would now be different.  Using the new cert and original fingerprint I can now connect over the port 80 bridge.  Is there any way to revert back to the original cert, so that the folks who already have the bridge configured can use it as they always have.

Let me look at what might be wrong with the 443 port, but I did exactly the same "shift and drop" technique for both the bridges.

Cheers.

The ports on the VPS are open.  I can see an ESTABLISHED connection from
home, but the browser just hangs throwing out this:  [WARN] Proxy Client:
unable to connect to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:443 ("general SOCKS server failure")

Not sure what to check next.
It looks like the "vanilla ORPort" part of your bridge works (I just
bootstrapped my Tor through it to confirm), but your obfs4 port is
busted somehow:

I wonder if, when you restored things, you also restored the obfs4
keys?

It looks like OhNoAnotherBridge80 is doing better?
