Fedora Core 4, Denyhosts 2.3 I created an allowed-hosts file in /usr/share/denyhosts/data with the same permissions as the other files in that directory.
I added my IP address in allowed-hosts. My IP address is not in any of the other files in the data directory. I have the real username and password, and I can successfully log in repeatedly, however ... Each time I successfully log in, Denyhosts seems to be adding my IP to hosts.deny the next time it runs, while I'm logged in. I edit hosts.deny and remove my IP address, and Denyhosts adds it back in while I sit there logged in, the next time it runs. I remove my IP again, and so on. I have restarted the daemon after creating the allowed-hosts file, and placed an additional copy in /usr/share/denyhosts, just in case. There is no /var/lib/denyhosts directory in this installation. I don't see a setting in the cfg file that activates allowed-hosts, so can I assume that checking for and reading that file is part of Denyhosts' normal process? I have a second question that I'll put in a new message. Thanks for any help with getting allowed-hosts to work.
