getinfo network-status sometimes returns an incomplete list
Sometimes Tor's response to a "getinfo network-status" does not appear to include all known OR identities. Some servers may not be included in the returned list, even though Tor has built circuits through them. Sometimes the returned list is entirely empty, even though Tor has built circuits and displayed its happy "Tor has successfully opened a circuit" message.
Here is an example:
getinfo network-status 250-network-status=autonomynodev2=$EFE988B0EF6A708F5BB6A843AC507604D0C38239 KB=$C938A72F7E0333CEF5AA7C0B45FC74EF4E02F55D HaschMichMaedc hen=$F9D4EC6EAC081C3F26BF703932B07BB1B161F22F histor2=$3276923C1617879D3246133BD37111A661461382 hppie=$BBEB4939DF13BAC358DF49608C3B760A A6047EAB $D8632EAE2A5CA7BA147AB5489D43B5E2E80C37D7 $02FF7F59145E4917321739947585C757B22B4008 $1783E1CD818BB74FB20FE46E7317FBC26D13172E $519C8B8E1A51F3D2593B6675A9768D83F9F041CB $999C4E1F995A0714E7D64E8A6CD09AC4490E72D6 250 OK getinfo circuit-status 250+circuit-status= 7 BUILT freetux4ever,enterprise,utcluj 5 BUILT freetux4ever,spinell,waabbeel 4 BUILT myrandomnode,spinell,Tonga 3 BUILT myrandomnode,l3cht3rn3t,idbsgetyrubdgretyrw . 250 OK
Tor returned a list of ten servers and has currently built four circuits using nine distinct servers. Doing a "getinfo desc/id/" for each of the non-Named servers above told me they have the following nicknames:
nonec549299e43~$D8632EAE2A5CA7BA147AB5489D43B5E2E80C37D7 QuePuedo~$02FF7F59145E4917321739947585C757B22B4008 kazol~$1783E1CD818BB74FB20FE46E7317FBC26D13172E hiball~$519C8B8E1A51F3D2593B6675A9768D83F9F041CB farse~$999C4E1F995A0714E7D64E8A6CD09AC4490E72D6
We see that the set of servers returned by "getinfo network-status" and the set of servers through which we have built circuits are even disjoint, in this case.
