[Server-devel] errortoomanylogins

[Joshua N Pritikin]

I'm not sure how, but one of our students triggered errortoomanylogins. 
Restarting the browser did not seem to help. Therefore, I removed the 
check.

Is this is sane thing to do?

What is the point of this check anyway? If I was going to try to guess a 
password then I would create a fresh cookie for every attempt.
