Re: [tor-relays] Blocking outbound 22 or no?

[tor-relay.dirk@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hello AMuse,

we faced the same about 1-2 month ago. Actuall people use fail2ban which
creates abuse mails to you provider.
Thats not new. But recently the abuse mails have risen to numbers which
lead us to believe there are acutally more people abusing ssh via tor
than people really using it.

In the end we disabled port 22. After all - any sysadmin who wants to
have peace and ever looked a ssh config will have its listen port
somewhere else than 22.

best regards

Dirk
