I wanted to follow up on this issue. I'm still not sure what I should
be doing to grant edit access to this user. Is there an ip whitelist?
Is there a way to disable this auto-blocking?

Did you try to remove the *autoblock* from
Special:Ipblocklist? If not, try to
do that. If you did it and it was recreated, the blocked user tried to
edit/move/something from the same IP of the autoblocked user after you removed
the autoblock.
Yes I tried to remove the user's entry in the blocked users list.
(Special:ipblocklist)
Yes it was recreated.
Yes the user tried to edit again. Their IP address does not / can not change.
I don't know what to do to help.. =/

He is using a shared IP with some other users, none of which have been
editing pages.
I don't see a whitelist feature in 1.6.5's Special pages. I'd rather
just kill this feature since the site is private anyways.
It's odd, since the user is being blocked because that same user has
used the same IP before.
Some items have been removed for privacy:
