Even with a SIMS machine that you control there are limits, with 
everything really boiling down to the fact that a secondary does not 
know anything about local accounts. It can't do the TempBan trick 
that SIMS does to thwart dictionary attacks and shotgun spammers, and 
because of the risks of that method it is usually a good idea for a 
primary to trust the secondary, opening it up to  shotgun spam routed 
through the secondary.
