Hello, I'm new to security stuffs, but for sometimes now my server is under brute force ssh attacks. So i've decided to install DenyHosts, the installation went well.
After typing sudo ./daemon-control start starting DenyHosts: /usr/bin/env python2.6 /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/DenyHosts/deny_hosts.py --daemon --config=/usr/local/share/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg No error but then when I run : sudo ./daemon-control status, it says Denyhosts is not running An other thing is I cannot find any asl.log file in /private/var/log so I've used the secure.log but still not working. Any ideas ? Here are my settings for denyhosts.cfg SSHD_FORMAT_REGEX=.* \[Sender sshd\] \[PID \d*\] \[Message .* PAM: (?P<message>.*?)\].*? # The file to process can be overridden with the --file command line # argument # # Mac OS X (v10.4 or greater - # also refer to: http://www.denyhosts.net/faq.html#macos SECURE_LOG = /private/var/log/secure.log WORK_DIR = /usr/local/share/denyhosts/data LOCK_FILE = /var/run/denyhosts.pid DAEMON_LOG = /private/var/log/denyhosts Thanks, -- Emmanuelle MORIN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
