    Default Brute Force SUCKS!

    Brute Force SUCKS!

    I'm locked out from my own server and I didn't even log in invalidly.

    From SSH I ran:
    mysql
    use cphulkd;
    DELETE FROM `brutes` WHERE 1;
    exit
    and I still can't get in.

    Is there a way to just totally turn off the brute force by the command line?

    TIA!

    As a last resort, you can try stopping mysql and see if you can get in then to disable cphulk if you don't want to use it.

    You can also (once you're back in) add your IP to the whitelist to prevent it from getting blocked.
