(...) Not necessarily. The logic is both simple and sound: 1) Arguments have been made. 2) Todd has made a decision. 3) Further arguments have been made. 4) Todd has basically said under no circumstances is he going to change his mind.

(...) Isn't this a discussion group? How does this discussion go against the terms of use? I don't think it was a good idea either, and nobody can make you implement anything, but why can't he discuss it, that's what I don't understand. /Eric McC/ (25 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Another usefull feature of being able to have multiple passwords, and to retire them at your leisure is that for those weird random times when you have a good reason to let someone else use your account (perhaps Todd needs to log on as you to debug (...)

Well, for a brute force attack to be successful, they have to try 100,000s of passwords... if you limit them to 5 tried every 30 minutes, it's pretty certain that they won't stumble upon the correct password before the password owner dies...
