How do I control logins within Ubersmith?

In order to be able to control the logins from users into Ubersmith, you will need to understand what protections Ubersmith has in place already. Please see below for in-depth explanations of all the outlined items:

Default Security Configurations:

Ubersmith, being a security conscious billing system, tracks the amount of failed login attempts from a connecting IP address and/or username. Ubersmith will only ban a user for a period of thirty (30) minutes if:

• Five (5) or more login failures have occurred

This feature is in place to prevent the Ubersmith billing system from being hacked by a brute force or dictionary attacks.
