<div>Update on my Azure-Exit:</div>
<div>https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/0534295ACFD5A84312183B41D3FB275E9ADD9EE2</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It already has consensus weight 1200 after less than two weeks and its raising.</div>
<div>Everyone should use this option to give the TOR-Network a good push. After my free time has finished, i'll try to download an image of this Exit and create a second account on azure.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Technical question:<br/>
Could it be useful to save the keys and the fingerprint to use it on a "new" VPS to start with better performance?</div>
<div> </div>

<div>Best,</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: rgb(31,73,125);">Hi John.<br/>
<br/>
I think this depends on the distribution used.<br/>
Of course you can use own distributions and images.<br/>
I used the standard ubuntu which was suggested from Azure and did nothing than installing TOR (apt-get install tor), modifing the torrc-file and configured the port-forwarding.<br/>
Thats all.<br/>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi.<br/>
<br/>
I read some pages on the internet about TOR-servers on cloud-services like Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just gave it a try on Azure and it works like a charm!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You can sign up for free and receive credits worth ~200$. With this credits you can safely run an unlimited VPS for about 4-5 month.</p>
