The denyhosts author (thanks Phil!) and another person seem to have solved this issue. See http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2898723&group_id=131204&atid=720419 for the details.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04. The following fix from sourceforge blog got it working for me: 1) Edit /var/lib/denyhosts/sync-timestamp, and replace the timestamp with a valid unix timestamp. (I used 1276467300 ) 2) At line 55 in /usr/share/denyhosts/DenyHosts/sync.py, I made the following change from fp = open(os.path.join(self.__work_dir, SYNC_TIMESTAMP), "a") to fp = open(os.path.join(self.__work_dir, SYNC_TIMESTAMP), "w") I take *NO* credit for the fix, but am posting to give something back to the community & hopefully save the next chap some research time fixing this issue. ** Bug watch added: SourceForge.net Tracker #2898723 http://sourceforge.net/support/tracker.php?aid=2898723 -- OverflowError, "long int exceeds XML-RPC limits" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/564476 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
