====== DenyHosts ==
===== General ==

Denyhosts blocks IP addresses from which SSH breakin attempts are detected.

[[http://www.geekride.com/index.php/secure-your-ssh-server-with-denyhosts/|found here]] - [[ http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/features.html|Homepage]]

Blocked IP addresses are added to ''/etc/hosts.deny''.

===== Slackware ==

DenyHosts is available at www.slackbuilds.org

After intall copy config files to /etc:
<code bash>
cp /usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg-dist /etc/denyhosts.cfg
ln /usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg-dist /etc/denyhosts.cfg.sborg
cp /usr/share/denyhosts/daemon-control-dist /etc/rc.d/rc.denyhosts

FIXME Check if blocked hosts really get purged after 1 week!

===== Debian ==

Install denyhosts with ''aptitude install denyhosts''. This also adds the necessary autstart scripts and symlinks in ''/etc/init.d'', ''/etc/rcX.d'' and '''/etc/logrotate.d''. It further sets some default entries in ''/etc/hosts.deny'' and starts denyhosts.

Config file is ''/etc/denyhosts.conf''

By doing so, attackers will be blocked from all ports, e.g. HTTP as well. The IP addresses will be unblocked after half a year.
Then restart with ''/etc/init.d/denyhosts restart''.

===== Howto remove blocked adresses ==

The software stores its data internally, probably at ''/usr/share/denyhosts/data''. Manual changes in ''/etc/hosts.deny'' get overwritten!

Did not find anythind regarding this topic on the homepage of denyhosts. So here is workaround to delete //all// blocked hosts:

Stop daemon: ''/etc/rc.d/rc.denyhosts stop''
Set ''PURGE_DENY = 1m'' in ''/etc/denyhosts.cfg''
Run ''denyhosts.py --purge''
Restore ''PURGE_DENY = 1w'' in ''/etc/denyhosts.cfg''
Restart daemon: ''/etc/rc.d/rc.denyhosts start''
