I am not sure what you are talking about, the denyhosts is a python app and goes into the right place ( under python2.3/site-packages/ ) and only the docs go under /usr/share/docs - which is exactly where you would look if you went looking for docs. The actual app entry python file is /usr/bin/denyhosts.py which seems right to me. > I'd like to of course script this specifically for centos.
