Friendly IP Addresses
Xeams proactively detects attempts to guess passwords on your system. It blocks the IP
address if a user tries to specify incorrect passwords multiple times. This security feature can
occasionally block valid users who forget their password, resulting in blocking their IP address.
By specifying a list of friendly IP addresses, you can tell Xeams never to block certain addresses
regardless of how many incorrect password attempts are made.
Steps to Enable
- Create a file called
FriendlyIP.txt
in $INSTALL_DIR/config
folder. $INSTALL_DIR refers to the folder where Xeams is installed.
- Enter one IP address per line
- Lines starting with a # sign are ignored and can be used for user comments
