First of all thanks. I would never dig up a commandline like yours by myself :) But again I ran into troubles For absolutely sure reasons I have cleaned cygwin from my maschine of course including Sshd_server User Account Sshd User Account All Services from cygwin ( sshd, denyhosts, syslogd) And deleted the whole subdirectory structure Cygwin. Then I have done the following steps: 1.)ssh-host-config with User Separation and install as a service 2.) syslogd-config 3.) Installed Denyhosts by issuing the command as Administrator python setup.py install followed the first steps in the readme of denyhosts and edited denyhost.cfg and daemon-control denyhosts.cfg changes: commented out the line for Red Hat and activate the following line SECURE_LOG = /var/log/messages And also activated this one: LOCK_FILE = /var/run/denyhosts.pid OK so far - fine When I try to start denyhosts by hand with this: /usr/bin/denyhosts.py --daemon --config=/usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts.cfg Everything is fine and denyhosts is running But if I try to start it as a service it immediately stops after starting! I installed the service with your suggestion: cygrunsrv -I DenyHosts -p /usr/share/denyhosts/daemon-control -a start -d DenyHosts -f "DenyHosts 2.6" -y sshd -x /var/run/denyhosts.pid -o I have looked into the /var/log/messages logfile when I start denyhosts as a service - looks like this: Jan 31 23:28:33 yello-server DenyHosts: PID 3868: `DenyHosts' service stopped, exit status: 255 I have tried to run denyhosts as SYSTEM or as Administrator in the services config - but with no luck! What I have done wrong?
