Summary: denyhosts is auto-activated under smf, but not
configured completely
Description:
After installation one will have the service in maintenance mode:
> svcs -xv
svc:/network/cswdenyhosts:default (?)
State: maintenance since 17. Juli 2010 03:58:56 MEST
Reason: Restarting too quickly.
See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-L5
See: /var/svc/log/network-cswdenyhosts:default.log
Impact: This service is not running
I guess the reason is that the log file is not configured in
/etc/opt/csw/denyhosts.cfg
I think it is very sane to require any admin to think first about the
correct configuration regarding the log files, but the service should not
be auto-activated when it can not run from scratch.
This is especially an annoyance as the service is auto-activated for all
zones. So all zones will have a service in maintenance.
I suggest that the service should not be auto-activated in zones or even
the global zone.

This is changed to /var/log/authlog, but you still need to make the changes
in syslog.conf as described in README.CSW. Please verify at
