Using denyhosts-2.6_3 from the ports system, I am finding the following
error message in the "/var/log/denyhosts" log file:

<snippet>
2010-04-07 07:45:25,818 - sync        : ERROR    <Fault 1: "exceptions.KeyError:'timestamp'">
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/DenyHosts/sync.py", line 117, in receive_new_hosts

    return self.__send(self.__name, args)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1489, in __request

    return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1392, in _parse_response
    return u.close()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 838, in close
    raise Fault(**self._stack[0])
Fault: <Fault 1: "exceptions.KeyError:'timestamp'">
</snippet>

This error message repeats anywhere from every hour to every three or
four hours. I cannot seem to decipher the pattern. Is this error message
something I should be worried about; and if so, how do I go about
correcting it?
