Hi Cody, the "Banned Hosts list" from the Adaptive Ban Plugin is generated from the entries in the "/var/log/messages" file (like Fail2Ban works too). Usually the log file is deleted on reboot, unless you have manually set "PERSISTLOG=yes" in your "user.conf". But depending on how your firewall is configured, you can permanently block IP-addresses either in "/mnt/kd/blocked-hosts" or if you use *.netset blocking-list files in "/mnt/kd/blocklists/blocked-hosts.netset" https://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:tt_firewall_external_block_list Michael http://www.mksolutions.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Astlinux-users mailing list Astlinux-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to pay...@krisk.org.
