Number of parallel logins is limited to: 1. number of nproc/nofile for root user 2. max number of PIDs on a system 3. speed of CPU context switches 4. in case of login-KILL attempts, the brute force attacker will still have to maitain some timeout (try some real world tcl/expect code and it will become obvious for you) for guessing when the pasword was wrong, and there is also a program load/start delay of approx. 2ms (see http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=hello&lang=all). -- With best regards, xrgtn (+380501102966/+380636177128/ICQ:381730053/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
