It could possibly be that you've run into the new pam_abl "failed logins" 
protection of BlueOnyx. After a certain amount of failed logins in a certain 
period of time it'll refuse to let you in - even if you then use a valid 
username and password.

*However*: In that case you'd not get a "connection refused" message, but a 
"wrong password" message back.

So your problem could be something else.

Just to check if it's pam_abl related: Try to login to the GUI as "admin". 
That will still work even if pam_abl has blocked you out otherwise.

Then check "Server Management" / "Security" / "Failed Logins".

See if the IP you tried to login from shows up and has a red light under 
"Access".

If so, click on "Reset all Blocks" (or just reset the Block for the offending 
IP) and try again.
