Have you checked to make sure the admin's IP address is not in the ban list?

Both the listing in the banlist AND in .htaccess must be removed.

yes in the file everything is erased-it does not help, when you press the admin on the output immediately appears a message about the bunt and 3 times the admin's ip appears in the settings of the ban Guardian-I'm tired from there erasing-again 3 times the ipy will wither there

Okay - what appears to be happening is that although logged in admins (based on cookies on their computer) should not be able to be banned, your admin keeps getting logged out (or maybe they're not updating their session after their IP has changed) and keeps triggering errors that then trigger an IP block in .htacess.

Not sure how they're getting IP banned unless they don't know their own IP address and are banning themselves OR someone logged in as admin on a different IP address is banning what looks like a bad Guest's IP address due to all the errors generated by an admin who doesn't know they're logged out.

although I'm not sure that the hole is patched up, the fact is that I was replaced by an IP provider, we will see when the buggy is returned

What I was seeing as happening from the logs:

There were 2 logins for user admin from different IP addresses. One from an IP starting with 176. and one from an IP starting with 5.

One of those made an edit that threw an error that was reported here.

Almost immediately after, someone who was not logged in as admin at IP 176 tried to enter the Admin Center. At some point, the 'Guest' at 176 was banned - prossibly by the person logged in as admin at IP 5. Once IP address 176 was banned, 'Guest' at 176 got IP blocked because of repeated rapid errors.

Now, how the supposed admin logged in from IP 176 got logged out and failed to notice is something I can only guess at. I am guessing that their IP address got shifted to something else and then back again. OR they were working from 2 different computers on the same IP address and were logged on one machine and not the other and may have even banned themselves.

And yes, the same IP address can be added multiple times to the Guardian blocked list from the ErrorLog. (Although that's not likely to happen if the problem IP address is added automatically since once the IP address is listed, the problem user can't make any more errors to be automatically blocked.)
