Yes, I get periodic abuse complaints to moria1 (my directory authority). People complain that I connect to them over and over for weeks or months, doing port scans. What's really happening is that they are connecting to me -- meaning they are running a Tor client -- and they are using some confusing firewall tool that makes them misunderstanding what's going on. Once we collect enough tcpdump style logs from them, it becomes clear that they are seeing the "syn ack" from my computer, and since their outgoing connections to my relay use a fresh (high-numbered) port each time, they think it is port scanning. They never connect my computer with Tor in their minds. They just run a firewall tool and send complaints to the places they see in its logs. --Roger _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
