Re: [tor-relays] Traffic in port 9050 in a relay (denial of service attack?)

@jj tor The fact that your relay is refusing connections says that the port isn't open, which is a good thing. I suspect that persons unknown have port scanned your VPS, realised that you have Tor running (on standard ports) and is speculatively using a bot to (hopefully) connect to the SOCKS interface. I would a) move the Tor relay to non-standard ports b) use iptables to drop all incoming connections apart from the (new) Tor ports and shell access. Best, -- Parity parity.boy@gmail.com
