  • Tor hidden services / TLS for binkp

    From Oli@21:1/151 to All on Thu Oct 10 22:03:40 2019
    Is anyone interested in testing binkp connections over Tor (hidden service) and/or direct TLS*?

    My node supports both for incoming and outgoing connections. Are there other nodes in fsxnet that are reachable with a .onion address or offer direct TLS?

    I also would like to standardize Tor and TLS for binkp.

    I might have a play with onion - I see opnsense supports it - so
    that's probably where I'll start.

    :)
    I never used opnsense, but it looks like it's easy to configure a hidden service. If you will post the created onion address, I'll try to send you a netmail over Tor.

    Now sure how the BBS will route to it, but I'll figure that bit out.
    (Know nothing about tor - except how to spell it...)

    If this doesn't explain everything, just ask. https://wiki.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/tor.html#hidden-services

    Good luck!

    Nginx is fast becoming my favorite; I grew up on Apache but just set
    up a reverse proxy with Nginx - the synax and the config file layout
    is nice, and it didn't take very long to set up the reverse proxy.

    you mean a http reverse proxy? or one for binkp?

    IMO, nginx offers performance benefits over apache that make it a no brainer.
