DenyHosts reports suspicious login activity for allowed hosts, how can I stop this?
In DenyHosts v0.6.0, a new configuration parameter SUSPICIOUS_LOGIN_REPORT_ALLOWED_HOSTS was added to address this issue. You can refer to the included denyhosts.cfg-dist file for more information. This parameter can be set to YES or NO. The default value is YES. If you wish to change the default behavior and only report suspicious login activity from unknown ip addresses, set this value to NO. Regardless of whether this value is YES or NO, if the suspicious login did not originate from a known allowed-hosts the activity will always be reported. That is, this parameter only applies to ip addresses in your allowed-hosts file.
