IIRC, the autoban list is cleared if the filezilla server stops and restarts. So stopping and starting the "FileZilla FTP Server" Service should clear the autoban list.

hm... but autoban list isn't editable ?

Autoban will be removed in a future version of FileZilla Server.

Just set a long password and enjoy the show how millions of script kiddies try in vain to gain access to your well secured server.

The Power of Simplicity ?

No, just removing unneccessary and counter-productive features. Autoban enables a potential DOS attack. Think about proxies and VPNs/campuses. One bad guy can get an entire proxy/VPN banned.

yeah... so... power of (rest in) simplicity...

simplicity is usually better than complexity (in the case of Information Technologies)

FZ Server has an in-built mechanism that artificially slows down after some fast repeated logins.
