The variable PASSWORD-ATTEMPTS, as well as the variables DEFAULT-USER and ACCESS-FILE, affects AcuServer access security.
PASSWORD-ATTEMPTS holds a positive integer value specifying the total number of password validation attempts a requester is allowed before a connection attempt is terminated. The default value is three. If a value of less than one is given, the value one (1) is used. If a non-integer value is given, the default value (3) is used.
