denied access with ip filtering turned on

Post by dfeely »

anybody having this issue?

I just upgraded to 1.4.0.5, and am now being denied access. I have ip filtering configured and it used to let me in. Now after looking at the log the connection is now showing the dns name of the connection instead of the ip address. how do you turn off the dns translation and allow me back in?

Seems that replacing the ip address with his dns name in the logging had a siteffect.

Same parameter was used in the filer, checking ip address with name dosn't work.

Fixing it

Swapped out the exe x64 files and tested it with my remote access from work. log still shows dns name but it let me in. Will test it again tomorrow and report back.

log: (ip masked)

28/2/2023 19:50 Client rrcs-nn-nnn-nn-107.west.biz.rr.com disconnected (without filter)
