Hey!
Based on the output that you’ve shared the service is not running and has exited:
Main PID: 51765 (code=exited, status=226/NAMESPACE)
Did you install the service by following the steps here:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-endlessh-tarpit-on-ubuntu-22-04
Based on that status=226/NAMESPACE, what you could try is in your endlessh.service file, try disabling the namespace feature. You can edit the file with:
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/endlessh.service
Look for any lines related to PrivateNetwork, ProtectSystem, or other namespace settings and comment them out (or set them to false). For example, if you see PrivateNetwork=true, change it to PrivateNetwork=false.
After making changes, reload the systemd configuration and restart Endlessh:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart endlessh
Let me know if this works!
