If in this post there is security information I have reveiled I hope you will tell me
After a couple of hours where someone tried to login to root and Directadmin using ssh, i closed ssh and made some minor changes to the security.
I turned on the automatic add ip if login failed 3 times, in DirectAdmin.
I dont know why I was banned cause I DID NOT use wrong login???
My other users of the server also got banned, and they say they did not use wrong pass either?
SO how do I unban me so I can acces DirectAdmin again?
And as if that was not enough, because Im soooo good at this...
while I was at it I stopped SSL cause I got following error and I dont really need it, I think

I've an interesting issue here. A client of mine was apparently banned from one of my servers and the problem has been narrowed down to the APF. What's odd is that he's not listed on /etc/apf/deny_hosts.rules file, nor is his IP blocked by iptables.
But, as soon as the APF is enabled he can't access anything on the server! This is very random, I've been using APF for just over a year now and I've never had a problem like this. But who's to say it's not happening to others as well?
I can't seem to access my server. I can get in through a proxy but not with my own IP. I can't log in through SSH to find out what's going on because I'm banned. I manage my own machines at the moment, so no I can't really contact my host.
Since some days I have a problem with apf: It can't BAN one of the Ip from file deny_hosts.rules. Other IP's are correctly banned. Of course in apf log are:
apf(28474): {trust} deny all to/from 88.84.141.233
but this ip still have access to my server and scan my ports. I have this problem after editing internals/rab.ports (I added some ports to RAB_PSCAN_LEVEL_2). I don't know how can I fix this problem.
Topic should have title: APF can't block one of the banned IP.
After four month they banned my account, When I talked to them they said we banned your account for tow days because we Suspicion about you and I waited them for tow days but nothing new, after that I sent all my evidences to them, the passport picture, driver's license, ID's card and Visa Card picture from front and back.
NOW!
I don't know the reason for banned my account, why they banned me?
My story starts with my getting burned by fumiNET (the first *grrr*)...
Burstnet reactivates my server (for an additional payment of course). The server seems fine but I thought that I might do better with a BurstNET reseller (better service). So...
I sign up with a reseller, and since I got my new server I've been plagued with email bounces, rejections, etc. Seems that my server (via the reseller) was supplied with a bunch of banned IPs (in other words, crap IPs). (the second *grrrr*)
I've reported to the providers abuse department, but was told that I have to handle this. (third *grrrr* - or is it just continued from the second?)
I've had it. I'm ready to fold up shop. As it is the sites keep me busy - but then...
- I get screwed by fumiNET (losing a big chunk of money) - the hassle of trying to get my fumiNET server back up (thanks BurstNET) - transferring to the reseller for better service, and finding out that perhaps BurstNET service was better than the reseller's
I'm open if anyone has suggestions. Some that I've come up with myself...
- finding yet another server provider (recommendations welcome) - drinking large quantities of Guinness (worth it regardless) - pulling the plug on the server and getting shared hosting to hold some minimal content - forgetting the whole damn thing and getting a job as a [pick one]: store clerk, street cleaner, used car salesman
Have been receiving the following warnings for more than a day. Does BFD auto execute a permanent ban or do I have to do it myself? If so, how? Also, I did a whois, found out the service provider, and sent an email regarding abuse. I have yet to receive a reply.
I was wondering since its a HK IP, do I have to send the message in chinese? Would anyone be kind enough to do so?

Banned the following ip addresses on Thu Sep 13 16:32:01 SGT 2007
when you add a banned ip to APF it doesnt show anything when the user visits the site, just a blank page. is there anyway to set up a page such as "You IP Address has been banned,
I formatted my server and installed CENTOS 7 and PLESK 12. I have problems with cbl.abuseat.org. My ip enters in blacklist. I sent email to the support of abuseat.org and abuseat reply:
Please fix your HELO strings.
I check the my configuration and I think is correct:
- Reverse lookup is ok - Hostname is ok (server.domain.tld)
But I have the file in /etc/sysconfig/network empty. There is only written: # Created by anaconda
Also, is correct the my etc/hosts file?
127.0.0.1 server.domain.tld server localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 :: 1 server.domain.tld server localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
