"Too many authentication failures: 3" where 3 digit gives confusion to user as
he set its value as 2
{quote}
The documentation for this value clearly states
{quote}
Key used to retrieve the value in the configuration properties map of the
maximum number of failed authentication requests before the server closes the
connection.

Therefore, the code's interpretation is that you are allowed to make 2 errors
and must succeed on the 3rd. Thus the message is correct. I agree that it can
be interpreted the way you mention, but it can also be interpreted (by others)
the way the I mentioned It is a case of "damned if you do and damned if you
don't" - if I were to adopt your proposed interpretation someone else would
have called it an error as well.

> If I set above property value to 2 then after 2 failed login it shows
> following message
> "Too many authentication failures: 3" where 3 digit gives confusion to user
> as he set its value as 2
> I checked following code and find that we need to pass user set value to
> message instead of "nbAuthRequests" variable value
