I'm expieriencing deadlock situations between the startup process and the purge routine which prevents my servers to come up after a reboot
2302 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts_ctl.py start --purge --config=/etc/denyhosts.conf
2303 ? S 0:01 python /usr/sbin/denyhosts --daemon --purge --config=/etc/denyhosts.conf --config=/etc/denyhosts.conf
when I kill the --purge process the init runs fine
System is a current debian lenny, denyhosts is installed from the debian repository.
