My board doesn't get any real callers, but I get a constant barrage of people trying to break in. It's funny, really. This one guy keeps trying to use paswords like "root" or "admin" (the old standbys). I finally left him (or her) a message on one of the login screens, telling them to give it up because there is nothing here except for a little server with a bulletin board on it, and they persist. I realize that most of these attempts are from bots, but I have had a few humans too. This is all very entertaining, in a way, but it's also annoying. So, what do YOU guys do about people trying to hack into your BBS? Just ignore them and let them have their fun? Or are there ways to stop them? I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.
