[dba-VB] Goin' for the (browser based) gold

Hi Jim:

I have been using a Filezilla server for some time to transfer data from
clients.  The one annoying problem I have is that I'll look at the server
screen in the morning, and some 14 year old in China has been trying to
brute force the password all night, getting kicked off on every third wrong
guess then logging right back in.  I've never had a successful break in, but
it's annoying - do you have a solution for this?  I can't limit the incoming
ip range as the server is picking up data from client computers which can be
all over the place.

Thanks,
Doug
