The original point has drifted over the horizon.
I asked what could be done, in my case, to stop SSH attacks originating FROM my VPS which is running as an exit. There was another VPS emanating SQL injection attacks.
The problem is that volunteering a cheap VPS to run as a Tor relay or exit is a very fickle process. The VPS businesses don't waste time on anything to do with them. Their reaction is nearly always absolute.
It would be smart for the Tor society to approach that situation with guidance for ordinary people to successfully get another exit or relay running most of which would have to be on VPSs to get the speed and volume. I know there are bits and piecs on this subject but they are not a coherent guide for ordinary people.

Your points are well taken, Robert. I'm a relative newcomer to running a relay so unfortunately don't have the answers you seek, however I'm in agreement that more help and less bashing is in order if the bashers want to keep Tor alive../mini-rant -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTYlFoAAoJEJQqkaGlFNDPaH0IALEBZd4RgcvdJt1z4HnyIYIk Imw71M+WUyg88wr/DDS8JBRrjw0SXIcgGiMn+fGm4xVHyAqumFcxukupWCrozqPt YI1M/pcmgl5ZBgjFidOAxKYDBk7mfQ+qkBL9fCg7XsHNJZVnppxisQMADN6T3PhZ l8HntabRSm0fH/cRJYVaCrsAoLxclChA/N179sEa19U1gyCbftpxwi4UzdY5Ttbn z25eKgNSFwtYz4DEFkf9MB5MLzDjbXiV/RG6gghHUvBzjCabV4DCM9zlwXBEv8Sr dG1As2GIgLz6dIs6KaDTHdd03xbxOqzps072JW83mJ8tZl7RSkbEZeErLTOpT2s= =H+C/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
