I wondered about that to; however, until today, I have never even opened that
file. I have no idea where if came from.  I am assuming that you do not have a
similar line in your file.

I am going to comment it out and see if anything new transpires.

Thanks!

Not sure where that random /sshd came from, but the "line 1" bit is a 
pretty big hint as to where the problem is ;)

Error message with "denyhosts"

2007-12-09 Thread Gerard
I just installed 'denyhosts' on a FBSD-6.2 machine. I thought I had followed
the directions correctly, however, I continually see an  error message popping
up on the screen. This is a line fro the /var/log/auth.log file.


Dec  9 10:56:01 scorpio sshd[1477]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 1: missing 
":" separator

This is the top of my /stc/hosts file:


/sshd
#
# hosts.allow access control file for "tcp wrapped" applications.
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/hosts.allow,v 1.19.8.1 2006/02/19 14:57:01 ume Exp $
#
# NOTE: The hosts.deny file is deprecated.
#   Place both 'allow' and 'deny' rules in the hosts.allow file.
#   See hosts_options(5) for the format of this file.
#   hosts_access(5) no longer fully applies.

sshd : /etc/hosts.deniedssh : deny
sshd : ALL : allow
ALL : ALL : allow


All I added were the two lines preceding "ALL : ALL : allow". What could be
causing this problem? I don't seem to be missing any ":"  separators.


Thanks!
