I believe that this is simply the culprit of
/usr/sbin/denyhosts

I got locked out my own server recently by using my own Sparkleshare instance.
Seems that denyhost is oversensitive in Debian squeeze. I eventually removed
it on my site. Since it does not help at all for the ongoing Apache bombing
with junk, remember to try

 tail -f /var/log/apache2/docs.geotools.org-access_log

... I just think that we should remove denyhosts.

Best,
Markus
