Hello all.  

I have good news; bad news; and a question... 

Here's the good news:  Adaptive Ban has proved very effective at killing 
break-in attempts from bad-guys.

The bad news is:  One of our off-site users tried to re-install a soft-phone on 
his laptop.  The user knew his new host address and username but not the 
secret.  Amazingly, the user repeatedly tried to register, which resulted in 
his dynamic IP address quickly being banned.

As you've likely guessed by now, the question is:  What's the best procedure 
for un-banning a host?  For now, I've just added the IP address to 
ADAPTIVE_BAN_WHITELIST, which seems to work.  Is there a better way?

I'd appreciate your thoughts.  

Dan
