Hi Folks, I’ve updated denyhosts on a Centos 6.5 machine to 2.6-19 and for some reason it can’t write to /etc/hosts.deny, even though it’s running as a daemon and as root:
$ ps auxwww|grep deny root 18197 0.0 0.0 188756 6300 ? S 09:00 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/denyhosts.py --daemon --config=/etc/denyhosts.conf $ sudo service denyhosts start Starting denyhosts: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/hosts.deny' # ls -l /etc/host* -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 9 Oct 2 2013 /etc/host.conf -rw-r--r--. 2 root root 265 Nov 7 2012 /etc/hosts -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 497 Apr 8 13:44 /etc/hosts.allow -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1858 Sep 25 08:10 /etc/hosts.deny Ideas, suggestions?
