Hello Craig -
I understand the problem - unfortunately there is nothing Radiator can do to rate-limit a mis-behaving client device.
Perhaps you could put a filter on one of your routers to drop the "bad" requests?
regards
Hugh

I know Radiator isn't the problem. I just want a way to rate-limit the
amount of failed authentication attempts.
e.g. If the user/pass fails twice in three seconds = ignore the user request
for another x seconds.
Is this possible? If not would it be a good idea for a feature? You should
see my console it just scrolls by on trace 3 with one username failing 2-3
times a second.
Craig.

Hello Craig -
The problem here is that Radiator is not the source of the problem.
The correct answer would be to remove power from the ADSL modem.
What do you want Radiator to do?
regards
Hugh

I have a problem with ADSL users we authenticate here. They pound the server right now with 2-3 requests every second if their account has expired.How would you handle this? They are not duplicate requests.
