Hello,
I have have version 0.9.2 of Ossec and am having issues with address  
not being added to hosts.deny when an active response is triggered.
I have the active respnse setup to fire the host.deny command at  
level 10
I am seeing the /etc/hosts.deny file being touched at that time but  
no entries are being added.
I have the timeout set for 24 hrs
Any help would be appreciated
