when you edit the /etc/hosts.deny_ssh
you shoud delete both the IP and commend line otherwise it will not work
for example you find this
# DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 19:03:30 2013 | 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 # DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 22:36:00 2013 | 192.168.2.2 192.168.2.2 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 08:44:09 2013 | 192.168.3.3 192.168.3.3 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 10:44:39 2013 | 192.168.n.n 192.168.n.n
and you want to let 192.168.3.3 to have acces
if you delete only the IP (not the comment also)
like this
# DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 19:03:30 2013 | 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 # DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 22:36:00 2013 | 192.168.2.2 192.168.2.2 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 08:44:09 2013 | 192.168.3.3 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 10:44:39 2013 | 192.168.n.n 192.168.n.n
the block ban will not be raised for IP 192.168.3.3
also If you change to another IP
# DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 19:03:30 2013 | 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 # DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 22:36:00 2013 | 192.168.2.2 192.168.2.2 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 08:44:09 2013 | 192.168.3.3 192.168.a.a # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 10:44:39 2013 | 192.168.n.n 192.168.n.n
it seems to don't work
But if you delete both lines (IP + comment)
# DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 19:03:30 2013 | 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 # DenyHosts: Thu Feb 14 22:36:00 2013 | 192.168.2.2 192.168.2.2 # DenyHosts: Fri Feb 15 10:44:39 2013 | 192.168.n.n 192.168.n.n
and restart the service everithing is ok
