Banned IP address's

I just installed Sentinel on three of my sites, and it works great. I was wondering if any one has started a list of Banned IP address's? I would like to see a list availiable to download, so I could add it to my site. Question

Thanks,

Glad you like it Wink

! We will shortly be releasing an update and upgrade Smile

I don't know of any such list. Since many, many sites are hosted via dhcp, a ban list of the full IP becomes questionable, in my mind. Also, you will incur a performance hit the larger the list gets. My take on it is, if the crack attempt hasn't hit my site, he probably knows better, so why incur the extra performance hit? But, that's just my opinion Wink

Thanks for that information. That does make sense, because the wall is already in place.
