I searched all over and can't seem to find a fix.. I did an unthinkably dumb thing, I was sshing into 3 separate servers and somehow I must've gotten teh wrong pword too many times on one as it locked me out. I'm sitting next to the box (which helps) and I have direct access. I checked the denyhosts and the firewall ACCEPT chain bit can't see my IP anywhere. Where should I be looking?

Thanks for any help for my noob mistake.

Go on, have a guess
Are you using APF and BFD? If you are, check:

/etc/apf/deny_hosts.rules

and

/etc/apf/ad/ad.rules

Probably best to empty both out and then stop and start APF:

apf -f
apf -s
