Package: denyhosts
Version: 2.6-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

denyhosts has made an implausibly vast file full of duplicates:

matt...@ming:~$ wc -l /etc/hosts.deny
741529 /etc/hosts.deny
matt...@ming:~$ sort -u /etc/hosts.deny | wc -l
4155

As an example, one host I picked roughly at random appears 20 thousand times:

matt...@ming:~$ grep -c 'sshd: svr.safepack.com.tw' /etc/hosts.deny
20027

This is pretty poor!

Regards,

Matthew
