Firstly, thanks for your advise.
Since I'm personally fed up with this provider, I'll move my Tor node anyway. This last DDoS handling was just the last straw.
But before I discourage others from choosing this hosting provider, I wanted to check the facts behind this DDoS attack, but within by own log files, I can see nothing helpful. I'm going to ask the provider for further information.
Putting a Tor hint into the reverse DNS entry sounds like a great idea. I wouldn't have thought that this actually stops people from attacking your server. Thanks!
Furthermore, I wondered if the attackers were attracted to my system because of the Tor service, or were just randomly picking targets. But from your previous descriptions, I rather deduce that it is more like the latter, rather random attacks, right?
Anyway, I'll keep you informed about my investigations of the attack if you like.
Regards, Chris
