Wasn't sure where to get help. I'm new to FreeNAS as of last week. Been doing a lot of reading and testing. In middle of opening a bunch of recommended links into new tabs for reading I got the following error.
Code:
401 Unauthorized
Your IP address is temporarily locked out due to DOS attempts

Looks like a false positive to me. @JoshDW19, any idea what's going on?

I think I've seen this before where opening many tabs can trigger a DOS warning. Whatever the threshold is set to should probably be raised. I can't see how opening multiple tabs could ever be fast enough to be confused with an actualy DOS attack.

Well, I never see that, and I frequently open dozens of tabs in a short time.

Thanks Folks. Sorry I didn't reply sooner. Yesterday got really busy at work.
I PMd the IP. I just checked and it's still blocked. I'm not using a vpn or anything special.

Agreed, I've never seen it myself, but I've seen it reported with too many tabs as the reason.
