Wouldn't it be safer to accept connections only on port 80? Else he would be exposing the whole machine.
Hm. I don't know. If you have a local firewall that blocks access to say, samba, from external addresses, but allows it locally - would tor allow you to access the port, because it appears that the connection from coming locally?
If you're already exposing port 22 on the internet, I would argue allowing it through tor exit enclaving isn't increasing your risk any. But if tor lets you bypass the firewall - then there's a concern.
