They asked me to do something so that if this happens:
$ sudo ls
Password:
Sorry, try again.
Password:
Sorry, try again.
Password:
Sorry, try again.
sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
maybe twice, then the next time it either just locks up or says something
like "too many password attempts. You are blocked for 2 hours".
Anyway to do this?
On a similar note, using visudo I put
Defaults insults
which is supposed to insult you when you enter a wrong password, but it is
still saying " Sorry, try again.". DO you know why?
