A message appeared for several users other than LimeSurvey and the first login attempt. What can it be? How to solve the problem?

Message: "You can have the maximum number of login attempts. Please wait 20 minutes before trying again."

What version of LimeSurvey is used?
Do you use LimeSurvey in a classroom? Looks like many users from the same network/IP-adress try to login. LimeSurvey bruteforce protection seems to be active in your Limesurvey version.

The meaning of the word "stable" for users

Thank you.

We follow the forum contribuition: www.limesurvey.org/forum/development/955...al-attempts-of-login

And worked around the situation by increasing the amount of locks and shorten the lockout time from 20 to 1 second.

It seems that LimeSurvey sum all tries of all users and block the access of everyone when the number of the summed locks reach the limit.
