How to disable the failed login time delay?

[MarcC]

I recognize that this is probably great for security, but it's just not working for my client right now. I just upgraded the site, and one staff member got the wait time incremented to 90 seconds before she saw the message about waiting So then she said she was going to put off working on the site for a few days, because she couldn't deal with it for now.

I can't have this mental block happen with other staff or other clients--how do I turn it off? Thanks

I think you can simply deinstall Session Login Throttle module.

Somehow I think the sessionLoginThrottle should reset it self to 1 entry or just delete the entrie in the DB after valid login. Maybe there is a bug in that module. In the module I'm writing, I just set the amount back to 1.

Thanks guys! Martijn, not sure I understand. What's the entry for?

[Martijn Geerts]

SessionLogginthrottle.module counts the amounts of invalid login. & set the time when tried to login. If you you have a valid login, i think( not shure) that the login counter should be reset to 1. So nextime you login in wrong again you dont have to wait, 90 or 120 or 300 seconds for example.

Martijn, that would be a huge improvement.

I've updated this with the suggested improvement, thanks for finding it.

Thats cool, if it's in the core... I'll delete my (xtra) throttle functions in my module.... I'll hope I will find the time to continue with writing of it.
