An advantage this has over pure semaphores or mutexes is that, since it has a sort of "memory" about how many times an IP address has recent sent a failure, it could easily respond with immediate 403 errors (upon (...)

I've been thinking about this more tonight, and reading a bit about SysV semaphores, but I don't have experience with them and I'm finding the docs confusing, especially where Perl is concerned.

		Re: Password checks (was: Re: LUGNET Memberships)

That's why so many sites have such ridiculously unsecure password requirements -- so (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.people, lugnet.admin.general)

But doesn't that make somebody have to log in again if they use any kind of non-static-IP connection -- i.e., a typical dial-up or DHCP connection -- and not limited only to shared proxy servers?

Plus, as I said before, it's possible (and likely, I hope) that the checking will be less stringent. Right now I'm guesstimating that (...)
