Yes, reading the readme file, I found that the pid file name. I changed it
to the normal path
/var/run/denyhost.pid
But when it starts it stall says the same error:
DenyHosts could not obtain lock (pid: )
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/lock/subsys/denyhosts'
I change the -x option to /var/run/denyhost.pid , still same issue
I run the command not as service, just command.
/usr/share/denyhosts/daemon-control start
Same issue
I removed the service and rebooted the machine, same issue
I create the dir/file name, /var/lock/subsys/denyhosts, same issue.
I search there the files and registry for sybsys and could not find it.
Not sure what to do next.
Besides the pid file, all looks good.
Here is my damon-control file:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# denyhosts Bring up/down the DenyHosts daemon
#
# chkconfig: 2345 98 02
# description: Activates/Deactivates the
# DenyHosts daemon to block ssh attempts

DENYHOSTS_BIN = "/usr/bin/denyhosts.py"
DENYHOSTS_LOCK = "/var/run/denyhosts"
DENYHOSTS_CFG = "/usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg"
PYTHON_BIN = "/usr/bin/env python"
Also, what should I do for the SECURE_LOG setting:
This is the denyhost.cfg
