Is it expected behavior that the first call to denyhosts --sync will fail? > sudo denyhosts.py -d -c /etc/denyhosts.conf --sync [...] receive_new_hosts() [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/lib/denyhosts/sync-timestamp' received 50 new hosts Error synchronizing data name 'info' is not defined Successive attempts don't fail, but nothing is added to hosts.deny. I don't use sync myself so I'm not sure if that's expected behavior or not, or if I've somehow screwed up the denyhosts packaging badly enough to break this. I've received a couple of reports that the denyhosts daemon will simply hang when sync is enabled and I'm wondering if I need to ship a default sync-timestamp file. (An empty one causes a different failure.) - J< |

I experienced a similar problem when I set up a new configuration the other day. Try this: sudo touch /var/lib/denyhosts/sync-timestamp It should then sync.

DenyHosts logs it's absence as an error (since it might be an error condition) but safely recovers from it. If the file is not present, it logs the error and continues to function properly. That is, the error can be safely ignored. If you want you can create the initial file and stuff a 0 in it and the users won't see the error any more. That is the default that DenyHosts uses when it can't find the file.

Any idea of which python version they're using? Is there a stacktrace or just "name 'info' is not defined"? It shouldn't be an error. Info is defined in the sync module, so not sure where the error is coming from. A stacktrace would be useful or at least the entire log message if it's available.

I found the problem... it only effects users running it from the command
line/cron. The daemon mode isn't effected.
The quick fix is to put the following line into /usr/bin/denyhosts:
info = logging.getLogger("denyhosts").info
right above the ######################################### line near the
top.
That should fix the issue. Running it:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/share/denyhosts/data/sync-timestamp'
received 50 new hosts
received new hosts: ....

Why? DenyHosts only recognizes -d or no -d. It doesn't care about multiple -d's. That is, debug is either on or off, that's it.

Looks like sync from cmd line is busted then. Not sure when it broke (prior to this, nobody has reported it to me) but I guess that's because 99% of DenyHosts users use the daemon mode. I'll fix it for 2.7 which is nearing an official release. Yeah, I know I said it would be out months ago but I haven't had too much time to get it out.

FWIW, here's fix #2 for this issue:
at the end of the file change the 2 "### <<<<" lines as shown:
broken:
=========
if sync_download:
new_hosts = sync.receive_new_hosts()
if new_hosts:
info("received new hosts: %s", str(new_hosts))
sync.get_denied_hosts() ### <<<< sync to dh
sync.update_hosts_deny(new_hosts) ### <<<< sync to dh
fixed:
========
if sync_download:
new_hosts = sync.receive_new_hosts()
if new_hosts:
info("received new hosts: %s", str(new_hosts))
dh.get_denied_hosts()
dh.update_hosts_deny(new_hosts)
