I use a VPN service. The last time I was in DA it was off. Now my VPN is on and as a result I am getting the error in the log showing that the ip addresses don't match.

I read the following article: http://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=443

And it worked to fix my problem. However, once I successfully logged in, I went into SSH and then turned that feature off again and restarted DA. Once I did that I got booted out. I figured that it would have saved my last successful IP addres, but it doesn't seemed to have worked.

I've turned it off again, but is it not a security concern to keep it off? Is there a way that I can whitelist my IP address? Or can I change the interval which it automatically resets?
