Re: [tor-relays] DoS attack on Tor exit relay

[potlatch <potlatch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gerry,
At this point I have no working scripts for Tor/fail2ban.  Be happy to share if they ever materialize.  Fail2ban is sorely lacking documentation--or at least I can't find detailed docs.  I downloaded fail2ban on current debian and ubuntu VPS and got different version numbers--none were the current release.  Stay tuned or give a hand.
