#46 Sync failure - "long int exceeds XML-RPC limits"
DenyHosts successfully syncs twice, downloading 50 hosts each time, and then on the third sync it dies with this traceback when downloading hosts (upload is not affected):
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/denyhosts/DenyHosts/sync.py", line 117, in receive_new_hosts

My sync settings are:

As mentioned before, this only happens after two successful syncs. I've found another report about it, but no solutions: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=546772
Thanks for reading.
Correction: I have successfully synched twice in a
row with the time stamp file showing a single time stamp.
I can confirm that changing the "a" to a "w" works and the line 47 and 57 edits are not necessary with the line 55 edit
As distributed, denyhosts currently uses "w" on line 55. This code is actually due to a debian patch added in June of 2009 in an attempt to fix the following bugs:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=508504
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=510126
Unfortunately, this patch was a poorly chosen solution to this problem. I am creating a new patch that will be included in the next debian revision of the denyhosts package. Just wanted to clarify that this is a debian issue and not a denyhosts issue. Sorry Phil.
