I can no longer connect with my mysql databases from my pc. Nothing has changed on my end. I'm getting mysql.connector.errors.DatabaseError: 1129: Host '10.0.0.36' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts' I don't know how to unblock.

What should I do?

Thanks!

Sorry about that, it looks like someone was repeatedly trying to log in to one of our MySQL servers with invalid credentials, which blocked access for other people who shared that IP. We've flushed the hosts list for that server now.

Thanks!

If this were to happen again what should I do?

Let us know. We are trying to identify the user so that we can stop them from doing what they're doing, but we haven't found them yet.
