It also determines what user accounts are being targeted. It keeps track of the frequency of attempts from each host and, upon discovering a repeated attack host, updates the /etc/hosts.deny file to prevent future break-in attempts from that host. Email reports can be sent to a system admin. Hmmm.... still not seeing a repo. No doubt I could find some version of an rpm at http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/, but can I be sure it is identical to the one on the centos repos?
