Victor,

It will help if you post what you did. I agree with Richard

Hello,

I modified the source code to include a login throttling based on both IP address and username.

Its a very small modification, i can send you the source code and show you how to compile it if you are interested.

Is there anything built in to IdP v3 that can do login throttling? That seems like the one thing that is missing from the PasswordAuthnConfiguration. I want to do fail2ban style throttling where I block out the remote system instead of the user. This would prevent a remote system from doing a DoS against an account, and prevent searching for the accounts with a password of "Password1".

I have mod_security available to use. I could use that if I knew of all of the URLs where a login could be posted.

Thanks,

Richard
