[tor-relays] exitnodes blocking services

[Olaf Grimm]

An exit node at home is funny. Last year I've got visitors from law
enforcement early in the morning. Now I have some new "friends" from the
police department.

Be warned! They take a look on bad movies and assume you are the one...

Now I have my servers outside and at home a middle node only.
