GigaTux has said that they allow Tor exits.

And they run one themselves:

[tor-relays] killall -hup command

[Keifer Bly]

Hello,

So recently I rebooted my relay using the killall tor -hup command (while I was 
trying to mae some changes to my torrc file). My relays uptime was not changed 
at all by this, having a current uptime of about 6 days. However, I noticed 
today at 
http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=db1af6477bb276b6ea5e72132684096eee779d30

My relay lost the stable flag (which it had had for the last about two months). 
I know not to worry about exactly what flags I have all the time, but it raises 
the question of what eactly the killall -hup command does?

Thanks.

Re: [tor-relays] Turning down my relay from DigitalOcean

[Neel Chauhan]

If you want an alternative to DigitalOcean for a Tor relay, two good 
alternatives include BuyVM and ITL. I use them both for two exit relays 
each. Both providers are unmetered in terms of bandwidth, have good 
support, allow exits, and support both Linux and *BSD. If you need to 
choose one of the two, I would choose BuyVM (both their servers and 
network seem to be faster).


If you want an alternative to ITL and BuyVM, search online for an 
"unmetered VPS" and if you find a provider check ther TOS to see whether 
they allow the type of relay you want to run (many allow middle relays, 
but only a few allow exits).


Hope this helps.

Best,

Neel Chauhan

Re: [tor-relays] Turning down my relay from DigitalOcean

[gerard]

So far, for a year now https://www.1and1.com/ (co.uk) have ignored my exit 
mycontribution.  They must know it is there as have logged in, let alone seen 
the traffic.

2.90 TB a month.  

 

Their help desk told me “it’s your server, you can do what you like” so I took 
them at their word.

 

My exit limits the risky ports, and has a limited range port 80 networks open.  
 So far, touching wood, despite many open ports, I have not one abuse letter or 
any sort.

I am not sure why restricting port 80 seems to have a magical effect on abuse 
reports while 443 is wide open. Perhaps 1&1 have enough sense to bin reports.

The 1&1 T&Cs do not seem to exclude Tor specifically nor relays in proxies.  
Only one line in T&Cs banning “defeating identification procedures”, but that 
would seem to include a lot that protects  e commerce  or by using any 
encryption or any VPN, so I think meaningless, unless they are referring to my 
identification.

Hi,

I am running a Tor exit node on a OVH VPS (VPS 2014, the cheapest instance with

without any problems, often surpassing it's traffic limit w/o getting throttled

I know, finding a hoster that is fine with exits
can be time consuming but if you want to help
network diversity OVH is about the worst place
to add relays.

If question is more OVH relays or no new relays
at all than you should certainly add more OVH relays.

Usually the key fingerprint is enough to find a key
 if it was uploaded to any major keyserver.

I'm not sure about adding a keyserver field to the spec,
instead of a keyserver field I would use a keyuri that
points to the public key file on a https server directly.

Publish a GPG key instead. Spammers will have to go fetch your email
