#12 DenyHosts not Sync'ing

[Steve Hillyer]

Hi,
I have used DenyHosts a number of times on various installations without a problem, however a new server just refuses to sync. All Internet connectivity is ok, except DenyHosts will not Sync with the RPC server. I have even copied the DenyHosts.conf file over from a working server with no luck

I am getting the following error:-
2016-03-13 19:04:53,057 - sync : ERROR 'SYNC_PROXY_SERVER'
2016-03-13 19:04:53,057 - sync : ERROR Could not initiate xmlrpc connection

The affected server is a physical Centos 7 server. I have tried starting with the --debug flag to get more info, but the systemctl control doesn't like the extra parameter.
Has anyone lese seen this with DenyHosts?

Thanks,
Steve

To add a little more information to this, I found that the IP adress issued to the server was previously blacklisted back in 2013. I have removed as many entries as possible however the problem still occours - Does anyone know what blackisting service the DenyHosts server uses?
