Hello all, So I've recently just installed DenyHosts<http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/>on my FreeBSD 6.1-RC box and can't, for the life of me, get this daemon to start on boot. I installed version 2.4b using the setup.py script. I'e moved daemon-contro= l to /usr/local/bin and all configuration files from the default /usr/share/denyhosts directory to /usr/local/etc/denyhosts (including denyhosts.cfg). Here is what I've tried to get this to start at boot: 1.) Created a simple script file called denyhosts.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d= : #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/daemon-control start 2.) Changed the previous denyhosts.sh script file to this: #!/bin/sh case "$1" in start) /usr/local/bin/daemon-control start ;; stop) /usr/local/bin/daemon-control stop ;; *) echo "Usage: $0 {start | stop}" ;; esac exit 0 3.) Created an /etc/rc.local using the same script from 1.): #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/daemon-control start For all of these attempts, I even chmod'd them all to 777, but still no good. I even changed both 1.) and 3.) to "/usr/local/bin/daemon-control debug > ~/debug.output" and though the debug.output file was created, there was no information in it. So now, 6 hours later (yes, 6 hours) of playing with this has me now desperate to find anyone who has this set to start on boot. Anyone? -David
