Most of the time when I run an rpm install, I assume that the application will be installed and set running.
That is generally not the case with rpms that install daemons.1) I don't know what OS you're on, but I like to go through the package manager to install. Installing the generic rpm will probably work too, but I like the convenience of automatically updating all my software in one go.
# yum install denyhosts
2) Then see if I want to modify the default configuration:
# $FAVORITE_EDITOR /etc/denyhosts.conf
3) Then I start the daemon:
#service denyhosts start
(or # /etc/init.d/denyhosts start, if you like that better)
4) If everything is ok, I enable the daemon to start on boot:
# chkconfig --level 345 denyhosts on
In my experience this is the standard way of installing daemons via rpm.
