Mandriva 2010.2

I just installed this on my Mandriva 2010.2 system using the RPM. I had to use rpm -ivh --nodeps to get past the Python dependency. The logfile paths needed to be modified and I use the following in /etc/hosts/allow:

#---- BlockHosts Additions
#---- BlockHosts Additions
sshd, proftpd : ALL : spawn (/usr/bin/blockhosts.py )
sshd : ALL : allow

Anything I missed?

Minor changes

See the INSTALL file in the source package for a complete example of the hosts.allow changes.

For example, the last line ALL: allow is not necessary - it won't do anything since there is a sshd line before that which may trap connections.

Run the command /usr/bin/blockhosts.py by hand also - and see if it works without errors. May have to run as root to test it out - or under the under inetd would run it.

Thanks

I made that change and ran it by hand. No error messages.

A later check of /etc/hosts.allow shows it is working.

Thanks!
