This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_033F_01C195F3.4FD47600 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Considering setting mentioned variable more in the neighborhood of 4:50:25. However, questions that occurs is, is someone is trying to login in w/o authorization, wouldn't the daemon treat my login attempts in the same way? How likely would I be to have trouble logging in if I set this to this value? Also, what am I not thinking of, and is there really any benefit anyway? TIA, Kevin Kinsey ------=_NextPart_000_033F_01C195F3.4FD47600 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Considering setting mentioned variable=20 more</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>in the neighborhood of = 4:50:25.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>However, questions that occurs is, is=20 someone</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>is trying to login in w/o = authorization,=20 wouldn't</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>the daemon treat my login attempts in = the=20 same</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>way?
