Hey,

Since OVH offer these 4Euro Dedicated i bought one but it was not allowed to run a Tor Relay on it so i putted a Mirror on it: http://37.187.0.127/tormirror/

They wouldn't even allow a middle node? _______________________________________________ tor-mirrors mailing list tor-mirrors@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-mirrors No its not allowed on these cheap dedicated servers, but i already run some.

I haven't actually found anything particular in the contract for ovh.co.uk: https://www.ovh.co.uk/support/termsofservice/special_conditions_dedicated_se... However, I have found this in the German ovh.de contract: "9.1. Aus Sicherheitsgründen müssen sämtliche Nutzungendurch Kunden vonnachfolgend beispielhaft und nicht abschließend genannten Diensten vor einer vorgesehenen Nutzung bei OVH per E-Mail an kundendenst@ovh.de beantragtwerden unter genauer Angabe der vorgesehenen Dienste; [...] Anonymisierungsdienste aller Art (z.B. Tor) etc" https://www.ovh.de/support/agb/OVH_Anlage_DRS_2013_2.pdf which basically says that you have to ask them for permission before running Tor at all (the way I understand it, AT ALL, meaning client/relay/exit node, doesn't matter) for "security reasons". Furthermore it continues: "Unabhängig davon ist der Betrieb von öffentlich zugänglichen Proxy-Diensten und öffentlich zugänglichen Exit-Nodes auf Servern der OVH ausdrücklich verboten und nicht genehmigungsfähig." Read: "public" exit nodes are not allowed at all and won't be authorized. The French contract for ovh.com has something similar but different: "7.4 Pour des raisons de sécurité, OVH se réserve la possibilité de procéder à la suspension immédiate et sans préavis de tout Serveur sur lequel serait proposé à titre gracieux ou onéreux, un service ouvert au public de Proxy, IRC, VPN, TOR, pour lequel OVH aur ait connaissance d'une utilisation malveillante, frauduleuse ou illicite."

From my understanding saying that, again for "security reasons", they reserve the right to suspend all services i.e. when running a "public" Tor service.

https://www.ovh.com/fr/support/documents_legaux/Conditions_particulieres_loc... So overall it's safe to say OVH is pretty restrictive about running Tor relays, not to mention exit nodes. Definitely not a Tor friendly hosting provider. Cheers. On 08/05/2013 01:32 AM, Steve Snyder wrote:

Of course they aren't. The new servers are really cheap, where should they take the money for the lawyers from? By the way: They're pretty restrictive about anything proxy- and irc-related. While they don't care about warez as long as nobody legally complains, your server gets immediately locked for anything looking like a backdoor, spam, DDoS-attacks etc. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: tor-mirrors [mailto:tor-mirrors-bounces@lists.torproject.org] Im Auftrag von myRL.net Tor Mirror Gesendet: Dienstag, 6.
