 Ragnarok> my sbbs.ini setting are the dafault:
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptDelay = 5000
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptThrottle = 1000
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptHackThreshold = 10
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptFilterThreshold = 0
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptTempBanThreshold = 20
 Ragnarok>     LoginAttemptTempBanDuration = 600

i'm using the following...

        LoginAttemptDelay = 5000
        LoginAttemptThrottle = 1000
        LoginAttemptHackThreshold = 2
        LoginAttemptFilterThreshold = 3
        LoginAttemptTempBanThreshold = 3
        LoginAttemptTempBanDuration = 10M

and they're banned to ip.can pretty quickly as are the telnet and ssh bots...

why let them beat on your machine for such a long time? block'em and be done
with'em real quick... no need to subject your machine to beatings like that ;)
