Hello,

I have added the repeated_offenders configuration block to all of my agents and the server as follows:

<active-response>
    <repeated_offenders>120180240</repeated_offenders>
</active-response>

When I restart OSSEC on the agent, I do see the messages indicating that it recognizes the settings:

2013/03/12 11:17:40 ossec-execd: INFO: Adding offenders timeout: 120 (for #1) 2013/03/12 11:17:40 ossec-execd: INFO: Adding offenders timeout: 180 (for #2) 2013/03/12 11:17:40 ossec-execd: INFO: Adding offenders timeout: 240 (for #3)

However, I continue to see repeated attacks where the blocking is deleted after the default 60 minutes each time:

The only solution I've seen to this issue is to make sure this is configured on the agent side, not the server. As I mentioned, I have done this.
I am running OSSEC 2.6 on the server and all agents.

Am I missing something?

thanks.

Martin
