Just me and Inspector Gadget! That's alarming! laugh.

Just like the old days when we just had a single dialup connection :)

Heh. When I got my third line they cut it all down and put in a 6-pair cable.
I felt so swanky.

(One for the home phone line, one for inbound dialup, and one for the new pinned-up Internet connection we had from 1996 until 2000.)

I always laughed at the people who operated multiuser BBS using MS-DOS software.
They needed not only a separate phone line but also a separate *computer* for each concurrent user they wanted to support. But those places were usually run by people who wanted to charge for access.

Yeah, just ignore that and keep trying. Sometimes we get swamped with brute force attacks and it hits the configured limit for maximum sessions. We're still working on ways to mitigate that.

Well, plenty of perfectly fine intel/amd machines are going to hit the used market here soon.  Due to them colluding with Microsoft.
