Add Auto-Submitted header for RFC3834 conformance

2014-07-26T18:57:59.133000Z

Attached patch ensures that auto-responders (such as out-of-office/vacatation) don't reply to DenyHosts' produced mail by adding an "Auto-Submitted: auto-generated" header which indicates that automated responses are not to be sent.

#9 GeoIP information

2014-06-02T18:24:02.526000Z

It does not look as though the server[1] used in this patch is still operating. Can anyone provide an updated server/patch for this feature? It is an interesting feature and the code looks good, we just need a working service for DenyHosts to talk to.

Allow to purge all entries in DENY_HOSTS with --purge-all

2012-03-14T14:29:37Z

This patch adds the --purge-all flag to allow purging of all entries in the files defined in HOSTS_DENY without regarding the PURGE_DENY delay.
As I don't have an access to the SVN or CVS repo, this patch is based on the last available table version of denyhosts.(2.6) and only impact the denyhosts.py script.

Add SYNC_PROXY_SERVER to use an http proxy to synchronize

2011-12-04T15:27:38Z

Add a SYNC_PROXY_SERVER configuration option that allows you to configure an HTTP proxy for use by the XML-RPC sync request to the sync server.

fix hardcoded errno values

2011-09-14T15:28:55Z

currently DenyHosts compares 'errno' values with hardcoded numeric values, instead of using the constants of the 'errno' Python module.
This can lead to bugs due to E* values being potentially different per-OS, and even per-arch for the same OS.

The attached patch fixes the issue.

Patch to call PLUGIN_DENY on SYNC'd hosts

2010-11-10T23:37:47Z

This is a patch to have PLUGIN_DENY called every time a new host is received from the sync server.

Currently in production on the following system, using a plugin to add hosts to a dedicated PF firewall table

[18:29][root@vulture.coreitpro.com ~]# pkg_info | grep deny

ignore "Failed none": Patch for bug 1828684

2010-07-29T08:43:57Z

DenyHosts counts valid logins as invalid under Debian/Ubuntu at least. See bug 1828684. This simply ignores "Failed none" lines as requested. Minimal testing; presumably should be merged with patch 1940279.

GeoIP information

2010-04-07T18:33:38Z

This patch will add the REPORT_GEOIP configuration option. This option, when set to yes, will append GeoIP information to the report mail.

2009-06-19T22:14:33Z

It's present in Debian already.
