[asterisk-users] Under heavy attack

We have about 8-10 boinking us.  They generally run a 1-9999 peer attack and
a few alphas like common words or "eieio"  We use large, complex peer IDs
and passwords, so they have a long way to go.   I am happy to help keep them
busy.

I also send messages to their network abuse address.
