I have a UNIXWARE 2.1.3 server with approx 30 users.
Is there a way to lock out or disable an account
if a user tries to login more than (say) 5 times
with the wrong password.
I have logging setup but the auditors want the
account frozen!

There is on most versions of UNIX that I have worked on but I am unfamiliar with that flavor.
