The reason i ask this question is because i want to record that a user has failed to login after so meny attempts and thier session will be locked out,(as your maxloginattempts property does) but also record against the user the number of times they have been lockedout (every time a lockout a lockout counter in the user table gets increased). So after a number of lockouts that user will be switched off permsnantly.

 

Can this be done using your auth object.
