..::Block username after 3 failed authentications::..
Hi Everyone. I was wondering if there's some way to block the brute force attack. for example block the username after 3 invalid password attempts. This could be possible? if it's possible how? Thanks in advance. Regards. Alfonso.

Store password tries in a database, and reject the user if he tries more than 3 logins within a time. i.e. store data in a database. FreeRADIUS is not a database. Make FreeRADIUS put information into the database, and read information from the database. Alan DeKok.
