Re: [Fail2ban-users] running from RPM on RHES 2.1

[Andrew S. <an...@sw...>]

Thanks for the info. Ugh. What I wouldn't give to have all this on a
Debian system (I'm forced to use RHES2.1). Dependency hell.

I can't build python-2.3 because autoconf is too old (and there's too many
dependency problems with 2.3 RPMs). I found a python-2.2 package on
rpmfind.net that would let me build the red_dove logging kit. Now when I
try to start fail2ban, I get the following error:

Starting fail2ban: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/fail2ban", line 59, in ?
    pidLock.remove()
  File "/usr/lib/fail2ban/utils/pidlock.py", line 63, in remove
    os.remove(self.path)
AttributeError: __impl instance has no attribute 'path'

Not sure if I have a screwed up python install now or not.

Really, really wish this was a Debian box. Sweet Debian. *ahhhkglg*
