Is there a way to lock passwords for lets say 5 minutes after so many bad 
attempts and for them to reset automatically after certain period? We do this 
under Windows and Netware and your email just made me wonder under linux. Just 
curious if possible or any tips.

Regards,

There are so plenty password cracking tools around the web:

- Anger
- Cain & Abel 
- Crack
- Hydra
- John The Ripper 
- LCP
- LM Crack 
- L0phtCrack 4 
- PWdump3
- RainbowCrack
- THC KeyFinder 
- Venom
- YaHa
- ...

Some should be more relevant than others, depending on what kind of passwords 
you want to crack :)

Drop me an email if you need the links to these tools, but googling around 
should give you what's needed.

Hope this helps ...
