Hi!

Got a new site I have to update regularly from now on.

I installed the RSFirewall and tried to do a System Check. But it gives me that error:

Scanning could not finish!
Several times in the very bottom section(Scan Result):
Error! 503 brute-force protection active

I found a system plugin calles Brute Force Stop but deactivating didn´t help.
Here is the github page of the plugin: https://github.com/codeling/bfstop

Anyone knows that plugin and if its usefull at all together with RSFirewall?

And maybe someone knows another possible reason for the Error?

Thx in advance.
Chris.

You don't need an other BFA plugin when using RSFirewall! to protect Joomla!.
It's possible your Hoster have there own BFA protection server side and this can be the issue with the errors you get while using the scan.
