Configuration of user account

To use HttpBridge, you need an user id and password to login. The settings of an user account contain following items:

Group id: Group id is a number which categorizes users into groups like family, friends, classmates, and etc. HttpBridge does not make an use of it the moment.

Max wrong pin tries: It's a number to define how many times you can try with a wrong password before your account and/or ip get blocked.

Block time when too many wrong pin tries: It's a period of time of blocking your account and/or ip when you did too many logins with wrong passwords.

Max concurrent logins: If this number is greater than one, the user id can be used to login HttpBridge from as many different machines as it defines. This is good for a guest account.

Session timeout: If web server allows a session timeout longer than you want, to set up a smaller period of time here to reduce the length of session timeout.

Session life time: This time defines how long you can use HttpBridge for a session since you've logged in.

Block time when session life is over: If your session's life time has past, the account and/or ip would be blocked for the length of this time.

Block condition when session life is over: It defines the conditions of blocking an account and/ip: 'onbusy' or 'always'. 'onbusy' means that the account and/or ip won't get blocked if the Max Concurrent Logins has not been used up. 'always' speaks for itself.

Size limit of a single content: The size limit applys to all HTML files, pictures, script files, and any contents linked to a HTML page. Files which exceed the limit in size won't be sent back to user.

Bandwidth limit of a single session: This defines how much bandwidth an user can use before his account and/or ip get blocked.

Block time when bandwidth is over: If you have used up bandwidth setup for the account, the account and/or ip would be blocked for the length of this time.

Block condition when bandwidth is over: It defines the conditions of blocking an account and/ip: 'onbusy' or 'always'. 'onbusy' means that the account and/or ip won't get blocked if the Max Concurrent Logins has not been used up. 'always' speaks for itself.
