you dont need any of those things you seek.
Follow these steps:
1. draw up a logon table with the following columns:
* username
* password
* accountstatus
* attemptcount
2. each time the client tries to logon, validate if account (username
and password) exists.
3. if exists, grant access; else
4. if username exists, but password is wrong, flag the attemptcount as
"1".
5. for the next two tries, add the value 1 to attemptcount
6. now develop a script that checks if attemptcount eq "3"
7. if yes, flag accountstatus as suspended Sincerely,

Subject: how to detect user login attempts
Hi, All:
This might have been asked but I am not experienced CF programmer so I
need help. I am building a login module that requires detecting user
login attempts. After the user fails after three tries, the acct will be
suspended. Has anything been done, e.g, tags, components, custom tag?
Can anyone point me to the right direction? Thanks.
Nathan
