Package: denyhosts
Version: 2.6-5
Severity: normal

Hello!

I would like to see denyhosts not running as root.  I think this should
be relatively easy to implement by simply using the include mechanism
that is native to hosts.deny (just list a filename).  Using a "denyhosts"
user and running the daemon as group adm, it would have access to its
own file that was being included in hosts.deny and would still have
access to read the /var/log files it needs.

Thanks,

-Kees
