=== Maintainer ===
[http://smeserver.pialasse.com/ Unnilennium aka Jean-Philippe PIALASSE] (Contrib)
=== Description ===
* Denyhosts bans hosts which failed too many login attempts to your ssh deamon.
* It contains also a panel in the server manager to see who is blocked, add some allowed hosts not to block and enable or disable the service.
it needs the packages smeserver-denyhosts and denyhosts
=== Installation ===
1. Log in (with username root) to the SMEserver console.
2. Install smeserver-denyhosts
yum install smeserver-denyhosts --enablerepo=smecontribs
You will get a y/N-question, answer y if it looks fine.
3. Instructions at the end of previous installation advices the following commands:
<br><code>signal-event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot</code>
<br>but you can skip that for the moment.
4. Open your webbrowser and go to the server-manager.
<br>Under "Security" there should be a new line named "SSH Denyhosts".
You should go to it and configure all necessary allowed host before enabling the service
5. to finish you should do
signal-event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot
or you might avoid it, unless it is NOT RECOMMENDED by doing this:
signal-event conf-denyhosts
Alternatively you can use the server-manager panel "Software installer" to add a new package and select smeserver-denyhosts, instead of steps 1 to 3, then refresh your browser and configure denyhosts, before doing the post-upgrade and reboot job in the panel "Reboot or shutdown"
=== Uninstall ===
yum remove smeserver-denyhosts denyhosts
or alternatively just remove them from the server-manager "Software installer"
=== Additional information ===
you can change the destination email account, instead of the default admin account, for this contribs using :
config setprop denyhosts AdminEmail youremail@yourdomaine.tld
signal-event conf-denyhosts
=== Check installed version ===
yum info installed smeserver-denyhosts
