When a client attempts to connect to a website, the domain is forwarded to an exit relay which resolves the domain, either by forwarding the request to a DNS server or using its own recursive resolver. At what point does the exit (or client) give up and signal that the domain could not be resolved? I would like to use that information to set a timeout for Unbound so that it will give up on attempting to resolve the address on its own and forward to a remote DNS resolver before the Tor process...| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
I was reading a couple articles on identity and information leaks from DNS. I was just curious to know how many TOR exit node operators run their own DNS servers as opposed to going through another| Tor Stack Exchange
If a host blacklists an entire country so that none of its IPs can reach IPs allocated to that country, is there a way to indicate that they are unreachable, using ExitPolicy or something similar? I tried the following, with this example being a relay that cannot exit to any Swiss IPs: user@host:~$ cat /etc/cron.weekly/blacklist-ch #!/bin/sh ZONE=https://ipv4.fetus.jp/ch.txt curl ${ZONE} | sed -r '/^[0-9\.\/]+$/!d;s/.*/ExitPolicy reject &:*/g' > /etc/tor/ch-ips user@host:~$ grep include /etc/...| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
Of course, I would a little bit different rules for that. But, what I have, that is a tord, connecting in and out everywhere. How to know, when it is connecting another tor node, and when is it working as an exit node, and connecting out from the network? My current best idea: download a list of IP:Port addresses of all the nodes, if it exists. Then: Incoming connections to my node ports are internal traffic Outgoing connections from my tor nodes are either going to an ip:port in the list, or...| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
As this question details, it is possible to limit the exit nodes into a specific country. What I would yet more happily do, is to have some more narrow limitation. For example, to specific subnets (ISPs) or even to a list of hand-defined hosts. Is it possible, can it happen?| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
I would happily serve a tor exit point. However, while I think I can trust the intra-tor traffic, I think an exit node needs some... precaution. My precaution is that I would "teleport" it, more clearly I would route it to a vpn channel and masquerade on the VPN endpoint. The result would be that the outgoing connection from my exit node would come virtually from another IP, not from where the bridge nodes connected originally. Can it happen? Is it allowed? In the public list of the tor exit ...| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
How do I run an exit node anonymously? By anonymously, I mean that nobody can identify who created or runs the exit node. I know that the IP addresses of exit nodes will be publicly available, so I am assuming that I will have to run the exit node somewhere far away from my location. But I need more clarification on how to exactly do this.| Recent Questions - Tor Stack Exchange
