Enhanced system security....

Hello Everyone:

Recently, I installed the enhanced security system for osf v.3.0
and I've had some problems. The machine I administer gives service to
aprox. 900 students.
So here are my specific questions:
1. When a user tries to log in (without success) to his/her account,
the system 'locks' it. I was hoping that a security system would do that:
disable it, but FOR A LITTLE WHILE, and then enable it again.
Apparently, my system disables it, and I have to use the (in)famous
XIsso manger to unlock it again. Imagine what happens when you have a
big student population.... I spend lots of time enablig accounts. Is there
a shortcut for this? Or , is this something I should have considered before
installing the subsystem?
2. How can I disable more than 1 account with just one click?
I know that templates may help me to do the trick, but I am not currently
using templates.
3. Is it alright if I still use adduser? (again, XSysAdmin is terribly slow,
and performs poorly)

Please acknowledge that this is not a flame to XIsso & XSysAdmin.
just a few comments.

thankx in advance.
Enrique
