On Friday I started seeing host names instead of IP addresses added to *
hosts.deny* and they're also in the denyhosts files, presumably from one or
more sync servers.

This will break denyhosts in several ways, allowing the possibility of
someone bypassing the protection provided by denyhosts (and possibly
preventing access from previously permitted IP addresses). It also breaks
third-party scripts that expect IP addresses.

Has anyone else seen this? e.g. from my *hosts-restricted* file:

ns1.gopalmer.co.uk:0:Fri Aug 27 11:07:17 2010

>From *hosts.deny*:
# DenyHosts: Fri Aug 27 11:07:17 2010 | ALL: ns1.gopalmer.co.uk
ALL: ns1.gopalmer.co.uk
