Tor: Client works, relay doesn't



I use tor 0.1.2.19 under SuSE linux 10.3.
I istalled it from rpm and tried to configurate it as a relay, but
unsuccesfully.
I istalled privoxy and TorButton in Firefox and it works fine.
Visiting the checking site confirms I'm on the Onion network.
I am in a LAN that connects to the Internet through a router, so I use
the NAT function of the router to forward TCP packets between port
50001 (inside the LAN) and port 443 (outside).

I am not interested in tor client-side functions, I installed it only
to become a relay and share my (usually wasted) bandwith.

Follows my /etc/tor/torrc file:

## Configuration file for a typical Tor user
## Last updated 8 October 2006 for Tor 0.1.2.3-alpha.
## (May or may not work for older or newer versions of Tor.)
##
## Lines that begin with "## " try to explain what's going on. Lines
## that begin with just "#" are disabled commands: you can enable them
## by removing the "#" symbol.
##
## See the man page, or http://tor.eff.org/tor-manual-cvs.html, for more
## options you can use in this file.
##
## On Unix, Tor will look for this file in someplace like "~/.tor/torrc" or
## "/etc/torrc"
##
## On Windows, Tor will look for the configuration file in someplace like
## "Application Data\tor\torrc" or "Application Data\<username>\tor\torrc"
##
## With the default Mac OS X installer, Tor will look in ~/.tor/torrc or
## /Library/Tor/torrc


## Replace this with "SocksPort 0" if you plan to run Tor only as a
## server, and not make any local application connections yourself.
SocksPort 9050 # what port to open for local application connections
SocksListenAddress 127.0.0.1 # accept connections only from localhost
#SocksListenAddress 192.168.0.1:9100 # listen on this IP:port also

## Entry policies to allow/deny SOCKS requests based on IP address.
## First entry that matches wins. If no SocksPolicy is set, we accept
## all (and only) requests from SocksListenAddress.
#SocksPolicy accept 192.168.0.0/16
#SocksPolicy reject *

## Logs go to stdout at level "notice" unless redirected by something
## else, like one of the below lines. You can have as many Log lines as
## you want.
##
## We advise using "notice" in most cases, since anything more verbose
## may provide sensitive information to an attacker who obtains the logs.
##
## Send all messages of level 'notice' or higher to /var/log/tor/notices.log
#Log notice file /var/log/tor/notices.log
## Send every possible message to /var/log/tor/debug.log
#Log debug file /var/log/tor/debug.log
## Use the system log instead of Tor's logfiles
#Log notice syslog
## To send all messages to stderr:
#Log debug stderr

## Uncomment this to start the process in the background... or use
## --runasdaemon 1 on the command line. This is ignored on Windows;
## see the FAQ entry if you want Tor to run as an NT service.
#RunAsDaemon 1

## The directory for keeping all the keys/etc. By default, we store
## things in $HOME/.tor on Unix, and in Application Data\tor on Windows.
#DataDirectory /var/lib/tor

## The port on which Tor will listen for local connections from Tor
## controller applications, as documented in control-spec.txt.
#ControlPort 9051

############### This section is just for location-hidden services ###

## Once you have configured a hidden service, you can look at the
## contents of the file ".../hidden_service/hostname" for the address
## to tell people.
##
## HiddenServicePort x y:z says to redirect requests on port x to the
## address y:z.

#HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/
#HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80

#HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/other_hidden_service/
#HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80
#HiddenServicePort 22 127.0.0.1:22

################ This section is just for servers #####################

## NOTE: If you enable these, you should consider mailing the contents
## of the "fingerprint" file to the tor-ops, so nobody else can pick
## your nickname and use a different key. See
## http://tor.eff.org/docs/tor-doc-server.html for details.

## Required: A unique handle for your server.
Nickname slodinciouew

## The IP or FQDN for your server. Leave commented out and Tor will guess.
Address 87.29.164.179

## Define these to limit your bandwidth usage. Note that BandwidthRate
## must be at least 20 KB.
BandwidthRate 20 KB      # Throttle traffic to 100KB/s (800Kbps)
BandwidthBurst 30 KB     # But allow bursts up to 200KB/s (1600Kbps)

## Contact info to be published in the directory, so we can contact you
## if your server is misconfigured or something else goes wrong.
ContactInfo Poletti Marco mar.pollo@xxxxxxxxx
## You might also include your PGP or GPG fingerprint if you have one:
#ContactInfo 1234D/FFFFFFFF Random Person <nobody AT example dot com>

## Required: what port to advertise for Tor connections.
ORPort 443
## If you want to listen on a port other than the one advertised
## in ORPort (e.g. to advertise 443 but bind to 9090), uncomment the
## line below too. You'll need to do ipchains or other port forwarding
## yourself to make this work.
ORListenAddress 0.0.0.0:50001

## Uncomment this to mirror the directory for others. Please do
## if you have enough bandwidth: see the bottom of
## http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#LimitBandwidth
#DirPort 9030 # what port to advertise for directory connections
## If you want to listen on a port other than the one advertised
## in DirPort (e.g. to advertise 80 but bind to 9091), uncomment the line
## below too. You'll need to do ipchains or other port forwarding yourself
## to make this work.
#DirListenAddress 0.0.0.0:9091

## Uncomment this if you run more than one Tor server, and add the
## nickname of each Tor server you control, even if they're on different
## networks. You declare it here so Tor clients can avoid using more than
## one of your servers in a single circuit.
#MyFamily nickname1,nickname2,...

## A comma-separated list of exit policies. They're considered first
## to last, and the first match wins. If you want to _replace_
## the default exit policy, end this with either a reject *:* or an
## accept *:*. Otherwise, you're _augmenting_ (prepending to) the
## default exit policy. Leave commented to just use the default, which is
## available in the man page or at http://tor.eff.org/documentation.html
##
## Look at http://tor.eff.org/faq-abuse.html#TypicalAbuses
## for issues you might encounter if you use the default exit policy.
##
## If certain IPs and ports are blocked externally, e.g. by your firewall,
## you should update your exit policy to reflect this -- otherwise Tor
## users will be told that those destinations are down.
##
#ExitPolicy accept *:6660-6667,reject *:* # allow irc ports but no more
#ExitPolicy accept *:119 # accept nntp as well as default exit policy
ExitPolicy reject *:* # no exits allowed
