Hi Lantis,

I tried both 1.12.x and 1.13.x. Some observation and feedback:-

1) cant update plugin with 1.13.x hence did little testing.

2) 1.12.x seems to work quite smoothly, with one extra eye catching log message:-
"OpenSSL version from headers does not match the version we're running with. If you get weird crashes, that might be why. (Compiled with 1000214f: OpenSSL 1.0.2t 10 Sep 2019; running with 1000215f: OpenSSL 1.0.2u 20 Dec 2019)."

3) both 1.12.0 and 1.12.x come with tor 3.2.10.

4) 1.12.x seem to consume much less RAM which is great news for my 128MB device:- tempfs 14% vs 50%, Swap space 0k vs 28k, VSZ 28k vs 75k

5) still get the denial message "http status 400 ("Tor version is insecure or unsupported. Please upgrade!") response from dirserver 'w.x.y.z'. Please correct."

Cheers

Edit: port forward 9090 from edgerouter to Gargoyle is all that is necessary to host tor relay server and tor bridge?

I think i only updated Tor for 1.13.x.
You need to point to the package repository that i provide for you in the downloads, or include it yourself, or install manually.

This should fix problem 2 (although that isn't a big deal) and problem 5.
I haven't measured the RAM difference so i'd be interested to know if you're still seeing less usage.

Yes i think 9090 is all that is needed to be forwarded.

sure will give it another look and report back.
tor crashed soon after my last message. a reboot brought RAM usage back to normal with --DirCache = 0.
may i ask the version of tor bundled to 1.13.x ?

cheers

0.4.2.7
https://github.com/ericpaulbishop/gargo ... #L122-L124

i suppose i have to remark

http://www.gargoyle-router.com/packages ... 79/default and

http://www.gargoyle-router.com/packages ... elspecific

to some other specific repo for my wdr3600?

Where are you getting the 1.13.x build from? If it's from my site, use:
https://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_cust ... ath79/usb/
and
https://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_cust ... lspecific/

Thanks! I got the image from https://gargoyle.romanhk.cz/

BTW, https://lantisproject.com/downloads/gar ... yisail.php doesn't seem to provide 1.13.x

I know. Those are only from ispyisail. These builds are not from him.
I haven't updated the site in a long time and probably don't intend to. I'm too busy.

Got it. Thanks for helping out! Lantis

I flashed the router again with image download from https://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_custom/1.13.x

updated /etc/opkg.conf plugin as below
src/gz gargoyle https://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_cust ... ath79/usb/
src/gz gargoyle_kernel_specific https://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_cust ... lspecific/

changed /etc/init.d/tor by adding --DirCache 0 to the OPTIONS= line

tor relay server worked flawlessly!! tempfs use 12% only. swap file not engaged at all. seems it's up for a great start.

one minor point: my edge router assigned two different private IPs back and forth, when I switch between WPA2 PSK and WPA2 Radius. Cheers

p.s. have a great weekend
