Put 1000 or so lines of data in a file and see :) You could probably write a script that would add say 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.4.255 and then run tcprules against it and see how long it takes. Charlie > -Original Message- > From: ISP Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wed

CHKUSER 2.0.8b on qmail 1.03 and vpopmail 5.4.10. I LOVE that CHKUSER can single out the unknown recipients and block the offending SMTP session - big traffic control helper! However, I've got one domain that's really being hit hard by dictionary attacks. Some attack traffic is a few hits from m
