laragilv Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 "The IP address 161.116.34.70 has been blocked for trying to log in to SFTP with the wrong password too many times." I don't think I was using the incorrect password in Filezilla and I was getting the "waiting time exceeded" message all the time in Johnny, but anyway, could you unblock my IP? Is this really due to a wrong password or could it be something else? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 FTP will time out rather easily on Johnny. The only time you get blocked though is if the authentication fails. Are you getting any messages about the password being incorrect, or is it just timing out? Unblocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laragilv Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thanks! I got the time out message several times, nothing else. The login info works fine in CPanel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 The timeout message happens once you're already blocked, so the failed logins happened before the timeout message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
