getting denyhost hits from other linode users
1. ignore it and let denyhosts do its job
2. warn the other linode users their site(s) might be compromised
3. file a report with linode
I'm inclined to pick 1, because I don't have time to mess with it, but if there is a strong community sense of self-policing these kinds of thing, I'd be happy to contribute.
cheers!

Either those systems are compromised - or the owners are morons to sh*t in their own backyard.
Either way they need to be cleaned up.
