Running an Exit node from home is asking for trouble. I can't imagine why anyone would want to. Anyways, /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny can also be used to limit SSH access. I highly recommend. Best, Jason Sent from my Android device. Please excuse my brevity and any typos that may occur. On Thu, Apr 16, 2020, 3:32 PM Volker Mink <volker.mink@gmx.de> wrote:
Not 100% accurate. I was running an exit at my home connection for close to one year. I removed it because normal internet usage became absolutely anoying. Capchas and DOS-Protections nearly everywhere. No streaming-portal was running. And lots of complaints from my provider. But no Cop action!
And now i am running 2 exits hosted in datacenters, one in germany, one in malaysia. No problems by now.

Sadly the police in germany is still stuck in the 90s and most of them don't know and/or care what Tor is and how it works.

Where you running an exit from home? It’s really discouraged because of what happened to you.

I had a police house search for my exit... I hate the stupid German police.

Hi,
my Family¹ has had an exit for 2 weeks and today the first abuse mail has arrived.
First of all, thanks for the templates:
https://www.torservers.net/wiki/abuse/templates
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorAbuseTemplates
I linked these two from the Tor-project:
- Common Boilerplate (Tor Intro)
- SSH Bruteforce Attempts
and wrote the following myself: -------------------------------------- Another good option that we use ourselves is: fail2ban And report to blacklists, which can then be loaded into the router firewalls: https://www.abuseipdb.com/user/33280
Hope this helps! --------------------------------------
I actually wanted to add that the SSH login attempts can be limited. (3-6) Because the logs from the abuse mail showed 100 attempts pro IP. ;-)
_Are such notes useful or do such instructions cause even more problems?_
