Glenn,
On my 10.4 system, I used these two files:
file 1:
$ cat /Library/StartupItems/daemonic-denyhosts-py25/daemonic-denyhosts-py25
#!/bin/sh
# startup script for service denyhosts-py25, created by daemonic
. /etc/rc.common
case "$1" in
start)
ConsoleMessage "Starting Denyhosts-py25"
if [ -x /sw/bin/python2.5 ]; then
# run the daemon
/sw/bin/python2.5 /sw/share/denyhosts-py25/daemon-control-dist
start --debug -c /sw/etc/denyhosts-py25/denyhosts.cfg &
fi
;;
esac
exit 0
=====
file 2:
$ cat /Library/StartupItems/daemonic-denyhosts-py25/StartupParameters.plist
{
Description = "Denyhosts-py25";
Provides = ("daemonic-denyhosts-py25");
Requires = ("Resolver");
OrderPreference = "None";
Messages =
{
start = "Starting Denyhosts-py25";
stop = "Stopping Denyhosts-py25";
restart = "Restarting Denyhosts-py25";
};
}
====
Note the locations of the files and mind the line-wraps. You'll see that
the location of the denyhosts.cfg file must be specified and that python
was being invoked since DenyHosts is essentially just a python script.
Also, most or all of these files should be present on your system:
$ locate deny
/Library/StartupItems/daemonic-denyhosts-py25
/Library/StartupItems/daemonic-denyhosts-py25/StartupParameters.plist
/Library/StartupItems/daemonic-denyhosts-py25/daemonic-denyhosts-py25
/private/etc/hosts.deny
/private/etc/hosts.deny.purge.bak
/private/var/at/at.deny
/sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/net/denyhosts-py.info
/sw/fink/10.4/unstable/main/finkinfo/net/denyhosts-py.patch
/usr/lib/pam/pam_deny.so
Keep us posted. By the way, are you using 10.4 or 10.5?
