It's in the upstream "journal" branch of the denyhosts source: https://github.com/denyhosts/denyhosts/tree/journal https://github.com/denyhosts/denyhosts/commit/d0d66a2890d50a460ecd20ee0b10702fec18eaeb The meat is in DenyHosts/deny_hosts.py. The code is mostly a mess because it's an attempt to cram journal processing into an existing main loop, and a lot of the diff is just reindentation. My intent was to make sure the simple approach worked first and then refactor things to make it less unpleasant. Really all it's doing is "self.__journal = journal.Reader()", then adding some match clauses with disjunctions in between, and maybe loading a saved cursor and seeking to it. The main loop is just doing "for entry in self.__journal:", but after running for some long period of time (usually days) that ends up blocking forever waiting for the next entry. The code to deal with the journal really is trivial when compared to polling to see if a logfile has changed, and then opening and seeking and everything. It's just that, well, it would simply stop working. - J< _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
