Try this on server conf:

  <active-response>
    <!-- This response is going to execute the host-deny
       - command for every event that fires a rule with
       - level (severity) >= 6.
       - The IP is going to be blocked for  600 seconds.
      -->
    <command>host-deny</command>
    <location>local</location>
    <level>6</level>
    <timeout>300</timeout>
  </active-response>

  <active-response>
    <!-- Firewall Drop response. Block the IP for
       - 600 seconds on the firewall (iptables,
       - ipfilter, etc).
      -->
    <command>firewall-drop</command>
    <location>local</location>
    <level>6</level>
    <timeout>300</timeout>
  </active-response>

And btw which version of ossec are you using?

Hello,

I am not being very clear here :-)

I have a central Network Monitoring Station. It regularly polls all my servers
worldwide to check on health.

I added that NMS IP to my server node during installation as a whitelisted IP.

Yet still agent node machines are auto blocking this IP still causing the NMS
to of course to think they are off line.

I have done all the usual stuff such as restarting ossec etc.

Server node is a Freebsd 5.5 server and Agent nodes are Centos 4.4.
