login attempts then timeout?

Post by JeremyBASS »

does anyone have an idea on how to have a login that after 5 attempts it then times out the user from trying for like 15mins... and may-be have it report it in a log for banning at a later point?  I think this would be a great add on for both the admin area and the FEU... thanks for the help as i have look all over and nothing yet that would work...


ideas on it:
no cookies (javascript could be used to bypass)
no sessions ( just need to reset the browser to clear)
set logs and alerts...

:)

You may be able to use the event log and a UDT to accomplish tis.

Admin logins are recorded - I'm not sure about unsuccessful ones, though.

well but can you use UDT to do the admin side? If not i'd think that it'd be a php thing right?
