I have been running denyhosts to stop attacks on my ssh port. The attacks continue after protection is put in place. Here is what I have in the tail of my /etc/hosts.allow as per the installation instructions; ------------------------- ...<snip> sshd : /etc/hosts.deniedssh : deny sshd : ALL : allow ------------------------- and in /etc/hosts.deniedssh I have; ------------------------- sshd: 82.165.182.220 : deny sshd: 200.52.90.100 : deny ------------------------- but I am still receiving attacks from the last IP address. So I am wondering what program actually -reads- hosts.allow May be it has to be reset, or restarted?
