  • Hammered

    From Dribble@VERT to All on Thu Jun 4 10:39:55 2015
    So I am being hammered by googlebot as well as other IPs.

    I was going to edit SBBS.INI to change the loginthreshold but when I did that, some of my users started getting filtered too. I was curious as to what you guys use as your login threshold. I run a QWK network so my FTP will be polled regularly by some boards.

    Just would like some advice.

    Unless your users are attempting to login with incorrect usernames or passwords, they shouldn't get filtered. Look at your data/hack.log for details of exactly what has transpired.
