Total newbie to Direct Admin, but am technology minded, usually I can figure things out.

I got directed to this link once my IP was blacklisted, but I get this error message when I try.

I thought I should be trying port 2222 but I guess don't know. What I was trying to do when I blacklisted myself was set up a filesync with an FTP between direct admin and my computer so that I could write markdown, plop it into the folder and have it show up on my website, but I never got that to work.

What port should I be trying to SSH into? Should I be using root? Admin? Or the username that I usually use to log into the direct admin panel?

Any help much appreciated.
 
you need to use VPS Remote Console to access directly to your server. Or get into directly at your datacenter to manage your server.


Or use proxy to temporary change your IP to get access to your server again.
 
So I'm able to log into the direct admin dashboard again but I can't find how to access this file directory

/usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/ip_blacklist
 
via ssh ( :22 ) with root access.


if you do multiple fail login, you will got blocked again.

It's a file. You can find it via SSH as @jamgames2 wrote.

However, if you have the correct root password, you can also access it from within Directadmin.
Login as admin and use the file editor, then select the blacklist file and click "show file". After that you can choose to edit it providing the correct root password:

Direct link:
https://yourdomain.com:2222/CMD_ADMIN_FILE_EDITOR
ofcourse change this to your own domain.
 
@Richard G and @jamgames2 , thanks for the info. When I tried the link it says "access forbidden" which maybe means I'm not the admin on my site? I opened up a ticket from within the DA portal, maybe I'll get some resolution there.
