Just out of curiousity, why does an invalid login throw a General Exception?  I really don't like seeing all those red entries in my event log... *grin*

I ask this because I have tons of these messages lately, and with the limited information provided I cannot tell if someone is attempting to hack the system or simply forgot their password and is trying desperately to get in...

Also, is there any way to find out what names were used during these attempted logins?

Hey Dan, Yeah that's something that I need to look at and handle like the DNN login provider does. Can you log that in Gemini so that I get a reminder. Things are finally settling down from the start of school year madness and I hope to get back to work on the provider soon.

Okay, it took awhile (Gemini is definitely not a user-friendly interface!), but has been entered.
