I am trying to run DenyHosts on OS 11.3. I can get it to sync and update the hosts.deny file, but with "rcdenyhosts status" it reports as being "unused" just after I started it with "rcdenyhosts start". I tried also with yast, setting up as a service (daemon) and starting it. It also stops immediately. In the denyhosts.log file there is no error info, just what it used to set it up at start.

I've gone through the configs several times, no joy. Anyone got DenyHosts running properly?

I've been running it for several years now. USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 12461 0.1 0.3 87248 14700 ?

No more denyhosts packages available for current opensuse editions? Would be nice if there was some workable packages again. Does this got to do with all that systemd and major changes within opensuse system?

11.3 isn't current, it is totally outdated and not supported any more, see https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime Denyhosts of course is available for *recent* versions: http://software.opensuse.org/package/denyhosts Vojtěch -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux http://www.opensuse.org/ http://trapa.cz/
