I have published a new version of DFIX today. The new version has the 
following new features:

  * DFIX finally respects entries in hosts.allow. So, if you want to 
whitelist any special IP addresses, just put them in there.
  * DFIX now looks source IP's for any hosts that are generating too 
many "file not founds errors" in your web server. These are very often 
caused by systems that are looking for vulnerabilities in your websites.
  * There is now a separate configuration file for DFIX in the /etc 
directory. You can make config changes to dfix in that file, and your 
settings will be preserved even if there is an update to the main source 
code.

Updates are published via NewLinQ. If you would like automated alerts 
about package updates from NewLinQ, make sure you configure your server 
as follows:
1. Click on the software updates tab.
2. Click on settings.
3. Change the query schedule to daily
4. Change the software notification light to "All software"
5. Click save.

Enjoy!
