(Star Wars) If Kenobi was a renown republic general in the clone wars and if he interfered with Jabba so often then how in the fuck did a dude with the last name Kenobi live on Tattoine anonymously for 20 years right on Jabbas back porch?

Tattooine is the backwater's backwater. The only reason to live there by choice is to get away from something, and Kenobi made sure he got as far away from the galaxy (figuratively and literally) as he could while still keeping an eye on Luke. While in his exile, he kept as low a profile as he possibly could, only peeking his head out to stay alive. Like to buy necessary tools or food. It's possible only Luke and the tiny number of people who lived relatively nearby even knew he existed at all. 

Plus, a little bit of force persuasion can go a long way in keeping pesky Jabba patrols out of his business.
