I've always thought brute-force attacks on servers could be easily prevented by enforcing a 30-second delay between accesses. For instance, instead of:
You have:Code:Start of Loop Wait for Request Process Request End of Loop
I'd like to see you get through a dictionary at 2 words per second! I realise this could lead to people launching DoS attacks (DoS = Denial of Service), so as soon as someone tries to use a dodgy password, block the IP address for 30 minutes (or infinity, whichever you like).Code:Start of Loop Wait for Request Process Request Sleep for 30 Seconds End of Loop
Ask questions on the open forums, that way everybody benefits from the solution, and everybody can be corrected when they make mistakes. Don't send me private messages asking questions that should be asked on the open forums, I won't respond. I decline all "Friend Requests".
