 Well - what I suspected to happen, happened. In fact, in 24hours, I had 6 Bot-Login requests coming through.

I don't know, if valid/real requests had been made here though.
From the submitted E-Mail Addresses, I do think that these are Bots.

Seems I'll have to add a possibility to identify living human brains somehow. Note that the system requests the User to validate his request. he is being sent a link to activate. If he does not do it - even the admin can not un...

 it looks like some bots are very active, and have a small AI permitting to perform login requests.
Upon user request - I had reactivated user-account requests on my website.
It didn't take 1 Hour for 2 Account-requests to get through, obviously with wrong E-Mail addresses. I'll observe the overall behavior. If it get's overhelming, I'll disable Account-Creation again.

 well - the SolSys systems where actually not affected. The Ubuntu LTS 6.06.1 running in here are way to old for that bug. However - as every admin should do it - I have checked all keys and not found a single vulnerable key.
So - for all of you wanting to know how I did that - I actually use a smal guideline found on the Heise pages. Sorry - german version only - however any security expert would understand...
