Sorry to report this but it's still not working. The botnet Wordpress login attempts are still happening and the IP's are not being added to CSF deny lists. I also have Wordfence and Brute Force Protection plugins installed on all my sites with extremely hard settings (1 attempt per 1 sec) and they ...

Many thanks for the update. Have changed the files again and restarted CSF. Will let you know how I go. My VPS server is getting hammered by a botnet trying to brute force wordpress passwords so anything I can do to reduce these attempts is useful..

I am still getting Wordfence alerts saying 'user xx tried to log in and has been blocked etc'
I can't see these IP's in the CSF deny IP lists.

My mistake I had added GB to the CSF country block list after a spate of hacking attempts and my VPS wasn't connecting to the ConfigServer licensing server(s) which are located in GB. All fixed.

MSFE has been working fine on my VPS server since you guys did the install a year ago.

When I click on the WHM MSFE Option it just hangs
Have rebooted and restarted EXIM.

Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same problem after the latest update.

Where and how to remove this cronjob to remove it?
