PURGE_DENY 

多久清除屏蔽的IP的记录。

########################################################################

#

# PURGE_DENY: removed HOSTS_DENY entries that are older than this time

#             when DenyHosts is invoked with the --purge flag

#

#      format is: i[dhwmy]

#      Where 'i' is an integer (eg. 7) 

#            'm' = minutes    #分钟

#            'h' = hours      #小时

#            'd' = days       #天

#            'w' = weeks      #周

#            'y' = years      #年

#

# never purge:

PURGE_DENY =              #表示所有条目永远不删除（这里才是实际的设置）

#

# purge entries older than 1 week

#PURGE_DENY = 1w        #表示删除记录超过一周的条目

#

# purge entries older than 5 days

#PURGE_DENY = 5d        #表示删除记录超过5天的条目

#######################################################################

PURGE_THRESHOLD

定义某个host最多被清除几次。 超过PURGE_THRESHOLD值就不会被清理了。

#######################################################################

#

# PURGE_THRESHOLD: defines the maximum times a host will be purged.  

# Once this value has been exceeded then this host will not be purged. 

# Setting this parameter to 0 (the default) disables this feature.

#

# default: a denied host can be purged/re-added indefinitely

#PURGE_THRESHOLD = 0

#

# a denied host will be purged at most 2 times. 

#PURGE_THRESHOLD = 2 

#

#######################################################################

BLOCK_SERVICE   表示阻止的服务名。

    默认为sshd，也可以设置FTP、SMPT等。

#######################################################################

#

# BLOCK_SERVICE: the service name that should be blocked in HOSTS_DENY

# 

# man 5 hosts_access for details

#

# eg.   sshd: 127.0.0.1  # will block sshd logins from 127.0.0.1

#

# To block all services for the offending host:

#BLOCK_SERVICE = ALL

# To block only sshd:

BLOCK_SERVICE  = sshd   #禁止的服务名，当然DenyHost不仅仅用于SSH服务，还可用于SMTP等等。

# To only record the offending host and nothing else (if using

# an auxilary file to list the hosts).  Refer to: 

# http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/faq.html#aux

#BLOCK_SERVICE =

DENY_THRESHOLD_INVALID 

允许无效用户登录失败的次数

#######################################################################

#

# DENY_THRESHOLD_INVALID: block each host after the number of failed login 

# attempts has exceeded this value.  This value applies to invalid

# user login attempts (eg. non-existent user accounts)

#

DENY_THRESHOLD_INVALID = 1  #允许无效用户登录失败的次数

#

#######################################################################

DENY_THRESHOLD_VALID

    允许有效（普通用户）用户登陆失败的次数

#######################################################################

#

# DENY_THRESHOLD_VALID: block each host after the number of failed 

# login attempts has exceeded this value.  This value applies to valid

# user login attempts (eg. user accounts that exist in /etc/passwd) except

# for the "root" user

#

DENY_THRESHOLD_VALID = 5 #允许普通用户登陆失败的次数

#

#######################################################################

DENY_THRESHOLD_ROOT

允许root登录失败的次数。

#######################################################################

#

# DENY_THRESHOLD_ROOT: block each host after the number of failed 

# login attempts has exceeded this value.  This value applies to 

# "root" user login attempts only.

#

DENY_THRESHOLD_ROOT = 1  #允许root登陆失败的次数

WORK_DIR 

#######################################################################

#

# Multiple email addresses can be delimited by a comma, eg:

# ADMIN_EMAIL = foo@bar.com, bar@foo.com, etc@foobar.com

#

ADMIN_EMAIL =konglb@xxxx.com

#

#######################################################################

#######################################################################

#

# SMTP_HOST and SMTP_PORT: if DenyHosts is configured to email 

# reports (see ADMIN_EMAIL) then these settings specify the 

# email server address (SMTP_HOST) and the server port (SMTP_PORT)
