That's interesting information. The black ice I've used had no
capability of stopping a dictionary attack.
How does it interface to IMAIL? The one I had either blocked
traffic or passed traffic.
Is there a setting to define the number of "invalid users" from
a particular IP to trigger blocking that IP?
Or how do you set it to block a dictionary attack and have you
actually watched an attack blocked?
