already did all items both you suggested, also did a build_all d.
no difference.
I have ssh/ftp access but no directadmin

will try the debug mode next. last time I tried to disable iptables per the link article fully locked everyone out and server needed to be rebooted.
 
ok my ip, which is whitelisted, is getting blocked by blacklist.
anyway to remove my ip from blacklist from ssh?

got it
/usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/ip_blacklist
now need to see why my whitelisted ip was blovked, only thing I had been doing was messing with the cb plugin.
 
just double checked and my ip IS in ip_whitelist there next to ip_blacklist file AND is also entered into csf as whitelist.
this is odd, I did have 2 ssh windows open while runnign builds in cb plugin and 3 ftp sessiosn open, maybe I hit a magic number at WRONG time LOL

edit: forgot to thank you guys for the help, sorry for the oversight.

To confirm, you can login now?

If you do need more child processes, edit:
Code:
/usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf
and change the numservers setting, set it to a higher value than 5, like
Code:
numservers=10
as we did change the default for new installs, but doesn't affect existing installs:

my concern right now (I am running fine) is why an ip in the ip_whitelist was added to the ip_blacklist in /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/ while I was logged in doing stuff. this locked me out fully.
my ip is also whitelisted in csf as well, but csf wasn't involved here.

just very odd, and I did verigy correct ip was in ip_whitelist
