ABAuth list has listed my Admin Account for blacksnday
as Protected, yet this morning it was banned while I was logged in as
admin.
Hitwalker was nice enough to log in for me and unban, since no
IP was listed in the sql banned IP table or htaccess or staccess file.

just wanted to let it known that a protected account was banned.

How did i get myself banned you ask?

entering the URL string of [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

dont ask my why i did that, Im not even sure now Razz

If no ip was listed anywhere, how were you banned? Even if you're protected you still get the banned screen/message. But, no IP gets written anywhere. So, you're not really banned.

For me not being banned---
I sure wasnt able to access any of my website

That's because you were listed in the blocked IP's. In [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

well....his ip was in there...banned in full..
i just went to sentinel at ABBlockedIP and there he was...

Now as to why you got banned when you were protected, well, that's another issue that we're looking into.

All I get with admin.php?op= is a nice plain white blank page Sad

Not sure how or what you tripped to bypass the protected admin status sither. It has happened to me a time or two but after it does and I try to reproduce it I can't Sad

It might be worth mentioning--- as I forget too--- thanks to CurtisHancock for reminding me...

That i was using The latest version of NukePlatinum, with the Sentinel package offered in their download, when this ban occured.

I have since upgraded Sentinel to the current version.

What was the exact admin id that you were using when you were blocked by NukeSentinel(tm), (ip was written to the table)? i.e. i'mabigredneck

blacksnday is both my username and admin name-- i was logged into both accounts
