Re: [tor-relays] freebsd relay doesnt receive any traffic (after 1 month)

[dlugasny@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Matt,

thanks for Your hints. To build my BSD relay, I used some of the available in the internet BSD tutorials. It seems that I have copied some parameters without understanding what for they are.

I would like to run non-exit tor relay.
Which parameters should I commented out ?



Documentation, in did I have to read it, but it would be much easier (much faster) to have some example which user can copy with some small modifications.



Cheers
Dlugasny
