You have some problem. If it's in deny.hosts it can't get to the sshd

Yes I do, with constant banging on the service port. Adding a
service in hosts.deny won't stop someone from continuously hitting it
and generating a bunch of 'tcpwrappers (unknown, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
rejection' messages in syslog. CONSTANTLY. However, if I reset the
connection and block them for the next 120 seconds, it has, so far,
proven to completely stop the constant banging. They try once, get a
reject (from hosts.deny) and the second time they try iptables drops
their connection they go away. Case closed.
