In Redhat 4.1, (and later--we also have a RH5.x server coming online in
a couple of months), how can I increase the time delay for unsuccessful
login attempts?

For example, when entering a valid username and an invalid password, I
would like a delay of 10-15 seconds before the system gives the next
login: prompt.

Thanks.
