Hi,

Currently I'm using another VoIP solution than TS, but TS3 looks very promising. As a server admin for a public server, my little wish is a new way of banning spammers. Instead of use the IP-address as a ban criteria, it would be much better to identify clients by a unique ID or something, which is based on some static computer information, e.g. some hardware serial numbers, the motherboard, the CPU, etc. That will also prevent others in the same LAN to be banned as well, but the greatest goal (from an admin's point of view) is to work around the dynamic IP-address system. I'm really tired up by reporting spammers to all these ISPs, just to ensure that the spammers will be banned for more than a few days.

Regards

not possible in TS, unless you are gonna block ranges in denyfrom

TS3 has a better solution iirc, but that isnt coming yet. See TS Staff posts for more info on that.
