Sorry for asking the obvious - what is the output from:
- /sbin/service denyhosts status
DenyHosts is running with pid = 25005
- /sbin/chkconfig --list denyhosts
denyhosts 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:off 6:off
You could also try to reset the configuration by copying /usr/share/doc/denyhosts-2.6/denyhosts.cfg-dist to /etc/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg (don't forget to backup your configuration).
Yes i did that many times, nothing was caught
Thanks
