# This will be matched when the user attempts to log in from more
# than <number> different ip address's. The authenticate_ip_ttl
# parameter controls the timeout on the ip entries.
- # NOTE: in acceleration mode, clients may appear to come from
- # multiple address's if they are going through proxy farms,
- # so a limit of 1 may cause user problems.
-
+ # If -s is specified then the limit is strict, denying browsing
+ # from any further IP addresses until the ttl has expired. Without
+ # -s Squid will just annoy the user by "randomly" deny requests.
+ # (the counter is then reset each time the limit is reached and a
+ # request is denied)
+ # NOTE: in acceleration mode or where there is mesh of child proxies,
+ # clients may appear to come from multiple address's if they are
+ # going through proxy farms, so a limit of 1 may cause user problems.
