Hi,
Which option would I need to change to increase the number of failed cpanel/webmail logins allowed?
Some of our customers are not so bright and keep getting their IP's blocked!
Cheers

# Set the number of login failures that trigger the blocking of the IP

hmm - I couldn't find that option.
I have:
# [*]Enable login failure detection of cpanel, webmail and whm connections
LF_CPANEL = 15
LF_CPANEL_PERM = 1
Should that be it?

You can do a seach on the page from your browser and you should find it.
In IE, edit > find on this page
Paste the entire line in;
# Set the number of login failures that trigger the blocking of the IP
BTW, your LF_CPANEL = 15 should be set to a 1.

Hi,
I've checked the Firewall configuration in WHM again and that line's definately not there!
What am I doing wrong?!

Thank you,
xperience: if you are running the latest CSF [and why you wouldn't?] than you should see in the configuration [csf.conf] that option,

Block access to webmail? Isn't it already blocked by default? Or do you mean block all mail period?

I mean i have employees in an office, and i want to be accesible webmail just from that office, not elsewhere.
I thought if it would be possible to specify for a domain a few IPs to be accessible,

You would need to remove the appropriate ports from TCP_IN and then add individual IP's to csf.allow to permit them access to those ports.
