Hi @nbonniot2,
403 errors can be caused by different things. It is also not recommended to use the “Multiple Authentication”
I’ll suggest disabling the XMLRPC Multiple Authentication then, double-check and make sure that your IP address is added to the “Authorized Host” list? This can be found at Configure ⇉ Global Settings ⇉ Authorized Host.
Please let me know how it goes and how I can be of further assistance.
Best regards,
Shalom
Thank you @shalomt for your quick reply.
I will give a try on this way as soon as I will get the offending IP. Just to be sure, when IP is added in this textarea it will be whitelisted for all plugin modules ?
The checkbox above is just sugar for automatically adding administrators’IP isn’t-it ? Or did I miss the point here ?
@nbonniot2
The IPs added to the “Authorized IP” box are IPs that are whitelisted from being blocked by the iThemes Security plugin.

Could you please elaborate on this question?
Looking forward to your response.

When you stated
The IPs added to the “Authorized IP” box are IPs that are whitelisted from being blocked by the iThemes Security plugin.
Do we agree that it applies to every module that can be concerned (bruteforce, 404 detection…) ?
Regarding the second part, the textearea to write whitelisted IPs is surrounded by a checkbox indicated that if checked, all connected administrators will see theirs IPs automatically added to whitelist during 24h.
I find it a bit confusing because it might lead to understand that only administrators IP are wlecomed here. My question was for clearing this off. Do you confirm ?

That’s correct.

Not at all. This means if any Adminitrator whose IP is not added to the textarea accesses the site, their IP will be Authorized automotically for 24hrs. However, you can still add any other IP addresses as preferred.
Please let me know if this helps.
