I have ossec 2.6 running on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. This is a web server
running LAMP....

There are several websites on this server. Every now and then OSSEC
will block an IP address for accessing a website. This is not an
attack of any kind. I've had it happen to me. I'll access a website on
the server and bam, blocked.

I have it configured to unblock the IP after 10 minutes. I figured
after 10 minutes a hacker will get tired and move on. I don't want
this to happen with users of my server.

Is there a way to configure OSSEC so this doesn't happen? I've never
taken the time to tweak OSSEC....

NOTE
The latest alert was for Moodle. I'm guessing a user clicked on
something and OSSEC didn't like it...
