Re: [tor-relays] Linux kernel vulnerability

2016-10-22 Thread Jason Jung
I don't think it would be a terrible idea but it is always possible that
your server will fail to reboot after a kernel upgrade.  This leaves it
offline without a general idea of why it is offline.  I do use
unattended-upgrades to automatically restart most services though.

Is it possible you have a disk or user quota setup?

Maybe we are limited to only one promo code of that nature?  I used
DIVEIN10 about two years ago and using LOWENDBOX says "Sorry, this promo
cannot be applied to your account. Most promos are valid for new
customers only."

That code only works with new registrations.

Re: [tor-relays] A few questions about my setting up my first Tor relay.

2014-04-18 Thread Jason Jung
Blob = proprietary binary package.  Packages where no source code is
available so you can't readily be 100% sure they do only what you expect
them to do.

 What the heck does blob free mean?

 Beaglebone Blacks are impossible to get for some reason. They seem good
 for the job with more stability for equal power consumption.
 Has anyone got Tor running on something similar in price?

 Robert


  I don't know if someone else already tried that, but you could use a
  BeagleBone Black [0] as well. It's a bit more powerful (1 GHz, newer ARM
  processor generation) than the Pi. The advantage I see is that it's blob
  free, which is a concern with the Pi for some people (please correct me
  if I'm wrong!).
