Re: [tor-relays] fast exits running 'unbound' should switch to 'named'

Nothing wrong with 'unbound'. Problem is bug in Tor daemon interaction with 'unbound' that brings exit effectively offline when GoDaddy blocks requests from it. This can happen to any fast exit anytime. GoDaddy has been blocking high-volume DNS requesters since 2011, and recent activity by some

[tor-relays] please send me the hosters you use

Hello! I'm spending quite some time in finding new cost-efficient VPS hoster in "unpopular" countries (non-exit). The relay community would actually have a lot information to provide in that regard - I think. I would really appreciate if you can share any hoster that provides VPSes with

Re: [tor-relays] unbound bogs down strangely, degrading exit relay

As with the earlier incident, problem came back within hours of restarting the daemons. Was able to figure out what's happening Operators running 'unbound' take note! Problem appears to be the result of someone attempting to DDOS a DNS service, in this case GoDaddy. Ran lsof -Pn -p a few

Re: [tor-relays] unbound bogs down strangely, degrading exit relay

Problem came back again while I was working on the exit. unbound-control purge_requestlist does not help but it appears that unbound-control purge_infra unbound-control purge_requestlist will clear up the problem without requiring a daemon restart--at least temporarily. Also tried
