Hello,

So I went to the wrong website, on this website they say for mac OS X 
you have to change : DENYHOSTS_BIN to 
"/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/DenyHosts/deny_hosts.py" but it's 
pointing to deny_hosts library not the main script called denyhosts.py 
(without the _) so that was the explanation why nothing was working ! So 
my daemon-control was messed up.
Now everything is ok.

Thanks for the answers.

Emmanuelle
