Yes, I have fail2ban installed but the attack is focused on my
ORPort 9001. Similarly, I have an external firewall but it
permits 9001 port passage.
Thanks for the thoughts, though, --potlatch

Hello Tor users,
Help me with a problem please. I have a
small exit/backup & directory VPS in Finland [1]. This
last week the
server (and Tor) have been overwhelmed with non-Tor IP
addresses. This
may be a small version of a DoS attack. I took the server
down for a
few days but when I restarted it the attack was there before
Tor users. Eventually, the load caused kernal crash.
I noticed this last week, that my Consensus Weight had
dropped from 5500 to 68.
Does anyone have an efficient way to defeat this ongoing
attack?

something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he
states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. 2.
