Dear all,

We are implementing a OAuth 2.0 server and there is a point that is not
clear for me in the RFC 6749.

What error should we return when the maximum number of attempts for
resource owner credentials is exceeded? I can not see any suitable error in
the current RFC.

We are implementing a policy for controlling this X attempts per period
(e.g.: 3 times/15 minutes)

Thanks for your answer.

Kind Regards,

Santiago Pérez
