Derek, I think Andrea meant the port security/denyhosts which monitors your ssh port and adds dodgy IPs which attack 22 to hosts.allow (I think - I haven't used it yet). Are you thinking of hosts.deny? I guess you can configure it as to how it blocks the IPs. Andrea, have a look at hosts.allow to see how it's blocking those IPs and you should be able to remove them or relax the rules. You have to give inetd a HUP to reread hosts.allow. HTH.
