I have set my PasswordAttemptWindow value to 2 mins.

passwordAttemptWindow="2"

but it doesn't seem to work for me.
I can see in user settings that it has updated the value to "2".
I have waited for over 5 mins with the login window open, but I don't get any timed out messages.

regards,
mark

 did you carefully read the description? this timeframe is used for counting the number of login failures in order to tock the user for the configured block time span.

thanks,

i read it, but found it a bit ambiguous -
was confused by this bit: "...attempts are allowed within a specified time..."

but now i see the "...minutes allowed between invalid attempts"


I wish they'd speak english instead of geekish - would be so much easier to say " x attempts then locked out for so long"

but thanks for clearing the mud.
