I am running APF on my centos (with cpanel) server and I am having trouble unblocking an ip. I have added the ip to allow_hosts.rules made sure it doesnt apear in deny_hosts and restarted APF however as soon as it is restarted the ip remains blocked if i stop apf or flush ip tables, the ip is not blocked. When firewall is running i cnt even ping the ip from my server. Any advice would be appreciated | |||

when you block an IP it gets added to the deny_hosts.rules file. This is a simple text file, edit it and remove the IP. restart APF and you're done. Alternatively, try If the IP is not in either of the APF rules files, then its probable something else is adding it to the iptables rules. APF is a wrapper to iptables, it just provides a means of adding new rules in a more user-friendly fashion. It does not 'take control' of the firewall. | |||
