   I have asked this before in -questions but due to a odd security
   requirement, I need the option to auto lock a normal user's account
   (root and those in the wheel group must be excluded) after let say, 3,
   login failures. I know this can cause a DoS issue but I HAVE to have
   the option of doing it in FreeBSD.
   Any info is appreciated
   Thanks.
