As of yet, no one has mentioned the port. Out of curiosity, is it included in the Reduced Exit Policy? https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/ReducedExitPolicy Also, I think the right answer is a solution like https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorAbuseTemplates#SSHBruteforceAttempts rather than blocking anything on the relay side. > I assume you mean "IP address" rather than "port" here. > > Despite offering, I wasn't given the opportunity to do that. Yeah, this sucks. But hey, if you're forced to be a middle relay, you now have a lot of really super cheap options for bandwidth. You should consider shopping around. Bandwidth litterally gets cheaper every year. For example, last year, FDCservers was charging $600/mo for 1 Gbit dedicated. This year, they now provide a 10 Gbit line for that price! FDC doesn't allow exits either, but the falling price points tells me you should seriously try to renegotiate price with your ISP (or just move elsewhere) if they are degrading your service by forcing you into non-exit. Exit bandwidth is worth paying a premium for, because it does require more resources at the ISPs end in terms of occasional abuse noise. You could also try negotiating upwards if your ISP's prices are already competitive with FDC's for middle service. Something tells me they're not, though :). -- Mike Perry
