Hi all,

Code: Select all

lfd on my.server.com: user@domain.com blocked for imapd access

Time:        Tue Apr 26 21:25:46 2022 +1000
Account:     user@domain.com
Application: imapd
IP:          X.X.X.X (AU/Australia/-)
Logins:      2
Interval:    3281
Allowable:   1 logins per hour in 3600 second interval
Flushed in:  319 seconds

I'm seeing the above error get generated when a user logs in multiple times, it seems to be set to only allow 1 login per hour, how do I increase this?

Looking at csf.conf, the below appears to be for invalid auth, but this is not my issue?

Code: Select all

# [*]Enable login failure detection of imap connections
#
# SECURITY NOTE: This option is affected by the RESTRICT_SYSLOG option. Read
# this file about RESTRICT_SYSLOG before enabling this option:
LF_IMAPD = "10"
LF_IMAPD_PERM = "1"

Appreciate any assistance.

Thanks

That is controlled by the Login Tracking options:

Code: Select all

# Block IMAP logins if greater than LT_IMAPD times per hour per account per IP
# address (0=disabled) - not recommended for IMAP logins due to the ethos
# within which IMAP works. If you want to use this, setting it quite high is
# probably a good idea
#
# This is a temporary block for the rest of the hour, afterwhich the IP is
# unblocked
#
# SECURITY NOTE: This option is affected by the RESTRICT_SYSLOG option. Read
# this file about RESTRICT_SYSLOG before enabling this option:
LT_IMAPD = "0"

Ahh thank you so much, I've set to 0, so hopefully this issue goes away!

Cheers
