I will generate the keys and add them here when I get home later today, I'm not comfortable with generating keys via a webinterface on the vps itself and need to setup a good encrypted storage system.
In the meantime what ports need to be opened in the firewall? I'm quickly losing the few connections I have, either with warnings in the log about them delivering rejected blocks or because of them being suspected of being firewalled. Currently I'm on block 179 with 0 network_num_connections.
Any advice for good encryption software as an alternative for the apparently compromised truecrypt that works with usbstorage, or is everyone using pgp/ecryptfs?
Also for DDoS protection, do you have any estimates on the traffic numbers per ip for a delegate, so I can setup a rate limited ufw-configuration?
EDIT
I'm still getting new blocks, are connections supposed to be permanent or are they intermittent? In the log I'm also seeing local-lan ip-addresses, so I'm guessing some configuration tweaks need to be made, plus instructions on what ports to forward.
