DenyHost works to automatically block brute-force attacks against the secure shell service. It does this by scanning log files for failed login attempts and blocking remote hosts which have made too many failed connections.

Please note this project has merged with The DenyHosts project on GitHub. Current development and releases can be found on the DenyHosts GitHub page: https://github.com/denyhosts/denyhosts
The files hosted here on SourceForge are for legacy purposes only and should be considered out of date.

  • The PurgeIP function cannot be called (missing = in arg list) and it is not working ([Errno 2] No such file or directory) (version 2.10). Otherwise it is working fine.
