Re: [tor-relays] TOR router install without access to root

[pa011 <pa011@xxxxxx>]

Hi Markus,

on your hint I was just checking feralhosting.com. They are quoting:

"We do not allow Tor exit nodes to be run on our servers. They're open
invitations for trouble, and while Tor serves a useful purpose our
network is not the place for it.
Tor relays are fine provided they strictly only act as an intermediary.

We will make an exception to this rule if you bring your own RIPE IPs
and handle abuse directly while taking full responsibility. "

Is this your experience as well?

Paul
