Isn't there a setting where you can disable permanent blocks and use the temporary block function?

it's likely that the person you're removing is just getting themselves put back in the list
if you search for the ip address
Code:
csf -g <ipaddress>
This should tell you what level, and why they're there.
if this is a customer, you may want to educate them on usage
If this is one of your own internal ip's, just whitelist it.

Love that on forums. Nothing better than searching for and finding exactly the issue you need help with and someone posts "fixed it".

I'm wondering why you'd want to do this, when CSF will simply push older IPs off the list as more get added once it hits the max you've set. Do you have clients getting caught and don't want to help that stop happening or something?

Thanks.
The easiest approach to doing this is to remove /etc/csf/csf.deny then restart the csf process every day . This will flush those blocks.

That being said, as @bear mentioned, you probably don’t need to do this, since CSF automatically flushed old blocks fir new ones

Few legit users get themselves blocked and I have to manually flush the firewall. I just want that in morning it would get flushed once so that people can reach the server for emails etc.
If it's the same users, it would be better to discuss why with them and fix the problem?
Alternately, just place a low number on IPs allowed to be blocked? They'd cycle faster that way, though that reduces the effectiveness of the firewall in general, as would a daily flush.

That being said, I'd simply enable the testing mode at the top of the conf file, then check for the cron it's added that resets it every few minutes in /etc/crontab /etc/cron.d/ or in the root crontab (crontab -e). Copy that, put the firewall back the way it was and edit the cron you copied. That should handle it?

Never flush the firewall because of a few users. Explain what they’re doing wrong and tell them to change things

If that doesn’t work, I divide them with a way to get themselves removed from the block . There are a couple of utilities designed for WHMCS and CSF that will help you

Flushing blocks daily is just the wrong approach
