ndlliem Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 My IP 198.200.97.90 was blocked again while I'm testing my directory permission with 2 userids . Please unblock it and advise: the site will block an ip after how many unsuccessful (consecutive or non-consecutive) attempts ?Thanks
Luigi123 Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Unblocked If you make an attempt around I don’t know 3 or 5.
Krydos Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 It isn't consecutive wrong passwords. You can't reset your ip by logging in successfully. Getting blocked is based on how many failed login attempts an ip has over a period of time. The exact number of failed attempts, and the period of time should remain secret though so people can't set up a bruteforce bot that stays right outside the limits.
