bhrss.py

version:     1.1.0

DETAILS

    CGI script to provide a RSS feed of currently blocked and watched IP
    addresses.
    
    This script needs to be installed in the "cgi-bin" directory or similar,
    under a Web server on the same machine that is running blockhosts.py.
    Also requires that the default blockhosts configuration file be
    available for reading values for hosts block file name, etc.
    
    Replace the URL below with the correct path to bhrss.py on your web
    server:
       http://.../cgi-bin/bhrss.py              [to get all blocked]
       http://.../cgi-bin/bhrss.py?q=watching   [to get all blocked as well as watched addresses]
    
    The two variations both provide a RSS feed containing a list of IP
    addresses, with count of failed attempts, and time when the entry was
    added to the block file (/etc/hosts.allow). The first variation, with no
    arguments, provides list of all addresses currently being blocked. The
    second variation, with ?q=watching in the URI, lists all blocked
    addresses, as well as the addresses that are currently being watched, but
    not yet blocked.
