More info, with some debug data...
Today it happened again, DH got stuck and the log shows the lines we
have been seeing:
2008-06-06 19:24:02,597 - denyhosts : DEBUG no new denied hosts
2008-06-06 19:24:02,597 - denyhosts : DEBUG no new suspicious logins
That's as far as I have gone. Anyone with good ideas on how to continue
debugging this?
DH is hanging during either receiving hosts via xmlrpc or sending hosts via
xmlrpc. In your case it seems to hang in sending hosts, in mine (since I have
sending disabled) it hangs in receiving hosts.
It should timeout and keep going gracefully but it obviously doesn't. You
seem to get more debugging output with python 2.5, but I'm seeing the same
problem with python 2.4 and python 2.3.
The xmlrpc docs I've found so far are less than helpful in terms of
debugging the issue. I suspect the one obvious workaround is to disable
synchronization to avoid the hangs. I've now done this on all of my hosts.
It will probably take a week to tell if this solves the issue.
If it solves the problem I think I'll just leave syncronization disabled
everywhere. It's a nice feature, but if it's broken and the software does
the job without it, why enable it?

Rob
