torrinswanson2 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Hey there, my IP is blocked 85.23.121.139. Also, this alert doesn't show when you try and login from the nav bar "login" button at heliohost.org. This message only shows when trying to login at heliohost.org/login. Super confusing i'm sure for some. I also move around a lot and work from various cafés. This block happened immediately without even being able to sign one time. Will this happen on every new café I go to? Cheers,Torrin Edited February 28, 2018 by torrinswanson2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 It was for failed SFTP logins. Make sure your password is correct in your FTP client. Unblocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrinswanson2 Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 Like I said. "This block happened immediately without even being able to sign one time." I never tried any FTP client before the block. The referred sign in was after the confirmation email and trying to sign in. Something sounds phishy. Maybe a bot tried to immediately sign in after my confirmation or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Something from the IPs you're using is sending a ton of requests to SSH and/or SFTP on our servers and getting blocked for failed logins. We don't allow SSH, and SFTP is not going to be the issue if you're not even using an FTP client. I unblocked the IP right next to the one you're posting from (ending in .18, you posted from .17). Once again shows as failed SFTP logins. I'll move this to see if another admin has any ideas on why this is happening to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
