I've realized today, following the thread on this list called
SSH & Machine permissions...
that this is the case. In the past I had compiled ssh or Openssh in most
cases, leaving out the wrappers. The packager of the rpm I used must have
compiled with wrappers. Since I didn't realize how it worked, I thought
the Bastille script did some magic here, which was not the case. Now I'm a
little embarassed! It's very cool though, I really liked the DenyHosts
AllowHosts configuration settings of the commercial ssh, and this is even
better, since it puts that information in the global allow/deny files.
Thanks (Michael and everyone) for clearing this up for me!
